[QUOTE="sepik, post: 901294, member: 74435"] Yeah, the OS can make it "sleep" in some situations. If OS power schemes modifications does not work, the problem might be elsewhere. An AV? Other softwares installed etc. My D:\ HDD goes to "sleep" when there's no activity, why it should be "awake" all the time afterall?. BUT, i ran Steam from my D:\ HDD. And Steam writes bytes or two when idle, and OS/av does that too. However, when i start the game, i hear the sound when my HDD "spins up". [/QUOTE]
