Software to stop the hard disk? I'd be very surprised if that were possible. I do remember reading about an expansion card for PCs that would automatically power down your hard disk after a specified period of time, and leave it powered down until it was next accessed. It occured to me that such a product is just what I'd need if I wanted to leave my PC powered up all the time. Unfortunately, I don't remember the name of the product. I do remember seeing it advertised in PC Magazine, about 2 years ago, in the small ads in the back of the mag. Hope this jogs some other reader's memory, because I'd like to get one of those boards myself, now that I think about it! ;^) --John Atkinson telesoft!john@ucsd.edu
