I don't often ask for help, but I'm asking for it now. I have an SE with a
hard disk that is LOUD. When I choose "ShutDown" in finder, it shows the
restart dialog, the fan runs, but it powers down the hard disk, under software
control.  What I want is:

1.) Has anyone written software to turn off the hard disk on the SE if
it is idle for a certain period of time, and turn it back on at the next
use (should be similar to Apple supplied software for the portable.)

2.) Could someone please send me the details on how the System powers down
the hard disk so I can write my INIT myself? (Just tell me that and I can
take care of the rest of it.)
