m01001100 Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 I've been dual booting OSX and XP for a few months now and have a question. I have a 1tb external hdd that I use mainly for backing stuff up and noticed that osx automatically puts the disk into standby after a few minutes. I think this is a great power management feature, since I don't use the disk much. Just wondering if xp/vista have something similar built-in or if there is a third party solution?
