- Some drivers have a jumper to activate spin up only after access for the
- first time. I know that some of the HP drives are like that.
-
- I have a similar problem. I have a scsi tape drive attached to the
- Seagate ST-01. If it's turned on, it's found on bootup and is accessible
- later. Because it's noisy ( rather the fan in its case is) it's often off.
- Would there be someway to have a static table of attached scsi devices
- that aren't mounted on bootup, but get switched on later?
- Thanks, Clarence
