Hard drive activity control

[Maurice]

Have an XP pro machine and will be adding two extra IDE drives. Is there
some feature that would allow me to control stand by and shut down times for
each drive? If not is there some app that would allow control ? I also have
a desktop with vista ultimate and pose the same question. Advice sought

Not each drive individually, but the turn of time can be globally set by
right clicking on the desktop and selecting the 'Screen Saver' tab, and then
the 'Power...' button. The setting (and others) is in there.
