I have an extra 4TB WD Black Caviar Hard Drive that I now use for cold storage. I store old gaming videos and extra games that I do not normally play so I don't have to redownload the game later on if I want to play it. I have a 500 GB M.2 drive to run the games off of and do not play games directly off my Hard Drive.
Since I do not use my hard drive it just spins and makes a lot of noise for no reason and it is irritating. I was wondering if there was a way to manually spin down the drive while I'm still using my computer to cut down on background noise.
