Stuck in the middle with you
I have a Firewire 400 external HDD and I was wondering if there was any way to put the drive to sleep without putting my computer to sleep. I know I can unmount the drives, but I want to put the drive in a pretty inaccessible place and stop it from spinning without actually physically switching it off.
