However the last time I was toying around with it I was hooking them up directly with SATA. Resulting in no spindown.<br /><br />That might actually be the sollution I was looking for ( though not one that I wanted per-se ). Just offload the spindown timer to the IC that also translates SATA into USB 3.X.<br /><br />Wait does the new RPi have USB 3.X. ?
