Hello,

I have a new computer running Windows 11 Home.

The system and the documents that are regularly used are on the SSD.

I have HDDs for file storage that I only need on a marginal basis.

For reasons of consumption and noise, I would like my HDDs to be in sleep mode and only activate IF I need to access them in Explorer, for example.

Is there a solution to my request, as I haven't found one.

Thank you in advance for your help,

Best regards

Hello,

Through the control panel > Power options > Change plan settings > Change advanced power settings > Hard disk

Turn off hard disk after: Settings (Minutes)

By default it's 20
