I have mine in W7 to never turn off in advanced power settings

My experience is that, unlike XP and below, that never turn off
setting doesn't actually work.They may not turn off, but they go into
stases until accessed. That is what the little delay is when you
first access a drive that has been idle for a while.

The other day someone had mentioned they had Win7 with an SSD and
they leave their system on 24/7. I was wondering do you allow the
system to sleep in a low power state?
That was me. Since Vista the hard drives power down automatically
after a set period of inactivity, and you can't over ride this.
That is why when you try to access a disk in Vista or Win7 a lot of
times it is asleep, and it has to wake up before you can actually use it.
Not Standby or Hibernate just sleep? If so, how do you do it? I
had heard SSD's and Win7 don't get along good with sleeping. I
would like to let my system run also but have concerns... Regards,
