Hi there,
Sorry to change the subject, but i've been wondering about HDD spin-down too. I have a summat-or-other 2GB IDE IBM laptop drive in my A1200 and it too spins down, or seems to, after about 2 hours, and im wondering if there might be a way to shorten the spin-down time.

Hey, I seem to remember seeing a tool in IDEFix that might of had somthing to do with parking HDD heads or making drives safe to handle. I wonder if anyone can confirm that there is such a tool?
