I have a Windows 2003 Server file server on my home network, with six JBOD drives for storage of media files and pc and laptop backups. To save some on power used I have the power options set to turn off after 15 minutes. I assume this means all disks in the server, except perhaps for the system disk.

The trouble with this setup is that I have one 5400 RPM drive that I use quite a bit throughout the day for music storage and waiting for it to spin up is inconvenient. Can power options for _individual_ drives be set in Win2k3, or is there 3rd party software that can do the same?
