Avoid harddisk spinning down
Hello,
If have data stored on 2 identical harddisks, software mirrored in W7, type: ST3500418AS
After a while my data hardisk(s) spinns down in W7 to save energy. When it starts spinning up to it's working speed it takes about 10 seconds in which some programs freeze.
I have asked the manufacturer of the disk what to do. They say the control of the harddiskdrives comes from the motherboard (Gigabyte F2A75M-D3H). I think the harddiskdrives are software controlled by W7.
Is it possible to avoid this freeze? Or is there a tweak possible?
