Perhaps. To add/remove jumpers on the HD to enable "Auto-Spinup"?
You need a spec sheet for the HD to figure out which jumpers those are.
If you only have 1 or 2 HDs, it's better to disable "Spinup Delay".
PC BIOS (or scsi controller Expansion ROM) and Linux SCSI drivers
are smart enough to send a "Start Unit" cmd to spin up the disk.
PDC on most (all?) parisc workstations is not. I don't think the
servers are any smarter but don't know for sure.
