Power Management Mode

This parameter allows you to reduce power consumption. When this parameter
is set to Enabled, you can configure the IDE hard disk and system timers. Setting
to Disabled deactivates the power management feature and all the timers.
IDE Hard Disk Standby Timer
This parameter allows the hard disk to enter standby mode after inactivity of 1 to
15 minutes, depending on your setting. When you access the hard disk again,
allow 3 to 5 seconds (depending on the hard disk) for the disk to return to normal
speed. Set this parameter to OFF if your hard disk does not support this function.
