Hi,

I'm running YDL 2.1 on a Powerbook 2000, and the hard drive never spins down,
even if I set hdparm. I assume that something running by default on my
system causes the hard drive to be accessed often enough that it never spins
down. Can anyone suggest how or if I can rectify this?

Thanks,

ron
