Hi all,

I've got a 2.2.7 system here and I'd like to be able to manualy send the
drives into a power saving mode, or something similiar.  Is this possible?

The system board and bios are both capable of doing this, but I'm not sure
how to invoke it from FreeBSD.

For those who are curious, the system has 2 western digital drives and
lives in my bedroom, not much happens at night and I'd like to effectively
stop the drives at night.  Damn things are LOUD.

Thank you,

Jim
