How to disable USB Disk STANDBY mode

3 March, 2009 (21:06) |

Recently I bought an external USB Disk Seagate FreeAgent XTreme, but after some idle time, it spanned down. Take me a while to find out how to disable this standby mode. First install sdparm.

If you want to start the drive in standby:

sdparm –command=start /dev/sdb

To clean standby mode flag:

sdparm –clear STANDBY -6 /dev/sdb && sdparm -a /dev/sdb

Thank you so much!
