[QUOTE="mr viggo, post: 387263, member: 68970"] I've set my hard disks to spin down/turn off after 3 minutes in vista's power management settings. This works pretty well and my 2:nd disk do spin down and keep my system quiet and cool... for about a minute or two. :( Then it spins up again. I've no idea what's causing this but the preferred behaviour of this would be that the HDD "only" spin up when I play a video file or mp3, because that's what's on it... nothing else. I've turned off the index search thingy on the drive as I thought that caused it but with no luck. Anyone got an idea of what to do? Any more settings that I don't know about? [/QUOTE]
