I am running a small personal file server. To ensure constant network
access, had to disable the ACPI, hence no power saving at all. The CPU

why you "had to" disable ACPI. i never ever seen network problems with ACPI. basically it works, or it doesn't at all.

gets very warm as everything (presumably) is running at full throttle.
Is there any way to disable the ACPI partially, i.e. allow spin-down
for disks etc, but keep the NICs running?

This is IMHO not about FreeBSD support of ACPI but possible BIOS settings that turn on some kind of hibernation.

Hope that this question was understandable. Thanks.
