Power Management
This option allows you to determine if the values in power
management are disabled, user-defined, or predefined.
HDD Power Management
You can choose to turn the HDD off after a one of the time
interval listed, or when the system is in Suspend mode. If in a
power saving mode, any access to the HDD will wake it up.
Note: HDD will not power down if the Power
Management option is disabled.
IRQ Activity
IRQ can be set independently. Activity on any enabled IRQ will
wake up the system.
