Alright, I know that some hard drives have advanced power management, that can be accessed/modified to shut off the hard drive power down mode (standby, or whatever you are calling it these days.) thru HDParm/SDParm. Now my question, as my hard drive (only one available as my big drive is having massive read/write errors) doesn't have an advance power management feature (Old Samsung that seems to spindown/standby after about 10-15 minutes of inactivity), so I can't adjust it, so, is there a USB Loader that writes to, or keeps the hard drive active while playing backups through said loader? If no one knows, or nothing of the such has been implemented, that is fine, I will just have to settle with my 4GB flash drive for now.
