The first time i implemented such a thing was for a QIC tape drive which overheated when running at full speed.

I made a little poll here about this behavior, 1.5 years ago: https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2020/01/msg00421.html Overview of result: https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2020/02/msg00758.html I wonder whether this is related to this obscure description on https://www.asus.com/Motherboards-Components/Optical-Drives/Internal-DVD-Drive/DRW-24D5MT/ "E-Green technology auto-closes drive application when not in use, saving over 50% power consumption for users" (What might be meant by "drive application" ?) Have a nice day :) Thomas
