I have searched the lists and haven't found any answer to this question. Is there a way to either force an IDE drive to spindown or set the idle timeout for it? I have a drive that I use for backups. I would like to have it spin down, use less power and make less noise when not in use. atapci1: <Promise ATA100 controller> port 0x8000-0x803f,0x7c00-0x7c03,0x7800-0x7807,0x7400-0x7403,0x7000-0x7007 mem 0xe4000000-0xe401ffff irq 9 at device 18.0 on pci0 ata2: at 0x7000 on atapci1 ata3: at 0x7800 on atapci1 <lines omited> ad4: 73308MB <IBM-DTLA-307075> [148945/16/63] at ata2-master UDMA100 ad6: 73308MB <IBM-DTLA-307075> [148945/16/63] at ata3-master UDMA100 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hardware" in the body of the message
