Hey bw123,
thanks a lot for mentioning -S, -Y and -y (and -C) Haven't heared of them.
With -y I can hear the disk spinning downAccessing it with e.g. ls will bring it back.
So far, so good. And finally with hdparm -S 6 (as an example), it will spin down after 30s. You are my hero of the month![😁]()
btw: I just mentioned the windows-thing just to make clear, that the disk has the capability to suspend. Because I was confused by ApmEnabled: false and ApmSupported: false (which seems to not be required). It was by no mean any statement that Windows is better or has more capabilities. I am just learning Linux, so I tend to compare it to functions in windows that I am used to. I just don't know better (yet), but I hope that I will learn a lot about Linux in the future (even with 45y![😉]()
).
Again: thanks a lot!
