Where would I find docs about putting the HDD in a system to sleep?  I have a
server that I would like to have almost totally powered down (still running
the idle process, still able to do some things at night like rebuild the
locate database & stuff -- but have the HDD spool down to save a little energy
and heat -- maybe the fans could turn off then, too)...

Is this a noticable savings at all?  Will it increase the life of the machine?
It is possible?

I'm curious what info is out there to answer these questions...  Thanks!
