- Recently I finally was able to upgrade the hard drive on my SE. Rather than
- being stuck with a slow 20MB drive, I now have the pleasure of using a fast
- 120MB drive.
-
- The new drive is on a shelf a few feet away; that way I don't have to
- listen to its fan. I have nothing on the old drive and don't plan on using
- it anytime soon.
-
- Is there a program that will let me shut off the old internal drive?
- I know about SCSI Saver, and don't like it. It doesn't turn the drive off;
- it just spins it down. What I want is a program that will let me specify
- what drive doesn't need to be turned on. The next time I power up, that drive]
- would not.
-
- A long shot, I know, but maybe someone has a solution.
-
- Thanks in advance,
- Happy New Year]
