Hi.
I have a media player with an internal hard drive, but I rarely use the hard drive and would like to add a switch to disable the hard drive power so as to reduce noise.
My initial mod put a switch on the ground, but that doesn't seem to be enough. The hard drive still powers up.
Is the hard drive grounded to the chassis, or is is it something in the sata connector, or both?
Thanks
Mark
