how to disable usb power in standby?

[unknown00]

so i usually have an external plugged in and i usually put my laptop (a hp dv5t) to sleep mode at night, but the external harddrive still stays on.

how do i disable usb power in standby mode? i already went into advance power options and couldn't find anything. also, in power settings, USB selective suspend is enabled

Why not turn it off ...
Then get one of These and shut everything down automatically when you turn off the computer.
