- CS.Look folks... Of course you shouldn't shut down the computer before
- .Windows (or any program) has exited. All of my drives park themselves,
- .but some don't. I think what he was asking for was a program to park
- .the heads while the disk is just idle and spinning. That would be
- .of some use if your heads don't park automatically.
-
- Which drive is it that automatically parks the heads during normal
- operation? The last one I saw was an ill-fated Miniscribe, and the
- autopark was nothing but trouble! Most drives only park when you
- power down.
