Yes, disks can be powered down when they are not used for some time. See the device-thresholds setting in /etc/power.conf and the power.conf(4) manual page. For example, the /etc/power.conf file on my box looks like this: % cat /etc/power.conf device-dependency-property removable-media /dev/fb autopm default autoS3 default cpu-threshold 1s cpupm enable S3-support enable device-thresholds /pci at 0,0/pci1043,8239 at 5,1/disk at 0,0 1200s device-thresholds /pci at 0,0/pci1043,8239 at 5/disk at 0,0 1200s -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
