    Same as the title. I've set my Drive to never sleep in order to try and fix a CD Drive that randomly spins up on my laptop and now I am wandering if the drive is set to never go to sleep, does is stay up even when the computer is in Sleep Mode?

    :)

    Sleep and Hard Drives

    I don't want my drives to sleep.

    If I have the 'global' setting in Power & Sleep to 'Never Sleep,' do I also have to go into Advanced to set the 'Hard Drives Sleep...; to a high number, or does that global setting make this setting moot?

    Thank you

    Computer Wakes Up From Sleep And Goes Back To Sleep?

    Hmm, lazy computer! *Roll Eyes Does the hard drive go to sleep when I put the computer to sleep even when set to never... :rolleyes:

    Sorry for that stupid line, I couldn't resist. *Frown Does the hard drive go to sleep when I put the computer to sleep even when set to never... :(

    Maybe you have something configured to sleep when idle. Check that on your power settings.
