Hello again list,
Just wondering if there was any way where I could possibly tie into the kernel or do something where I could determine whether or not a disk is currently 'in use'. Problem: I'm trying to spin down my disks periodically via a cronjob to save energy, reduce noise, and heat, and I don't want my disk to be spun down if it is currently in use. I do listen to music and watch videos for extended periods of time, so I'd rather not cause undue stress to the hard disks and cause the program I'm using on another machine to choke and die.
   Thanks!
-Garrett
