does any of you know a utility which allows easy access to spin down and spin up again IDE, SATA (and eventually even firewire) HDs?
in OSX i use disc util to easily unmount and remount drives, then maybe i just leave it open and put it to background.
in OS9 all i could imagine is a set of custom apple-scripts which unmounts single volumes, then reactivate only all HDs at once using the disk tool. which is not what i am looking for.
plus, as we know, OS9 doesnt support turning firewire-connected drives OFF when unmounting the volume(s).
