Subject: Raspberry pi stop disk spin down
I have a hard drive attached via a USB adapter to my raspberry pi. The
problem is that the disk always shuts down after a few minutes of
inactivity.  When I want to access something on the disk or write to it,
I have to wait for it to spin up.  How would I go about setting it so it
doesn't spin down?  I tried to look online and found sdparm mentioned,
but found nothing I could understand. Please help. Thanks
