I have a two drive setup, C and D. Most times when I access the D
drive it needs to spin up for a few seconds before letting me access
information.

What is causing this drive to spindown in the first place? I don't
know of any settings that are putting this to sleep?

Control Panel, Power Options- Select "Never" for hard disks. You can also
set the power option to Always On.
 
Check the power management settings in the BIOS. I'm sure that there is an
option for hard drive spin down time there.
