Thanks for taking an interest.

I ran the commands and got the result shown
below. Anything else you want me to try?


# hdparm -S1 -C /dev/sda; sleep 6; hdparm -C /dev/sda

/dev/sda:
setting standby to 1 (5 seconds)
drive state is: active/idle

/dev/sda:
drive state is: active/idle


Should I give sdparm a shot?
