Today, I wass backing up my MBP to my external FW 800 drive (2.5" Sata drive, powered via Fw800 port), and I noticed a weird thing, when I turn off the computer, the drive is still working, so my mac, even turned of drives power to the drive via Fw800, this is with my mac plugged in, if I unplug it, the drive shuts down.
I have never noticed this before. Can someone confirm?
