Sleep and Ext. Firewire Drives - - roshi - 02-17-2007

Besides checking the box, "Put the hard disks to sleep when possible" -

Is there a way to ask Energy Saver to not put drives to sleep at its own discretion? To designate how long you want before the drive goes to sleep?

Is there a downloadable thing that lets you select varying amounts of time?
