Thank you for your bug report, that's not something Ubuntu is going to
work on, also nautilus is probably the wrong place for adding disk modes
handling since it's only an application and not autostarted on boot

Title:
  Quieter PC with automatic Sleep State command to all HDDs

Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  * This is NOT a bug, but a feature request. *

  It is known that mechanical HDDs produce a lot of noise.
  I have several HDDs and mostly I use only one of them at every single moment.

  The problem is that ALL HDDs are working automatically when the PC starts.
  (I can hear them working even if the SATA port is disabled by the 
motherboard.)
  This not only wears down the HDDs, but also produces a lot of noise which 
shouldn't happen because that most of them aren't being used.

  It would be very helpful if Ubuntu would send a "Sleep State" command to all 
mechanical HDDs upon  startup.
  (Sending that command to SSDs isn't required.)

  ---

  In addition, nautilus itself could verify upon each "unmount" action whether 
all HHDs are being used.
  If there are HDDs which aren't being used (doesn't contain mounted 
partitions) - then nautilus could send a Sleep State to those mechanical HDDs.

  By "unmount action", I mean to the unmounting that happens when
  clicking on the "up" arrow in the GUI of Nautilus where all available
  partitions are presented.
