#20 Automatically wake the HDD before backup, and put it into sleep state agai

[windranger]

I use the tool to do a backup once a week on an internal back-up sata HDD; I'm using Robomirror with the Windows Scheduler, so that it is started automatically every week on thet same day, at same time.

Now I would like to keep the HDD in the sleep state, to save wear and tear and save power.
(I can sleep the drive manually, by using for example Revosleep)

But I was wondering if there is a way to wake the drive up before the backup process is started, and then put it back into the sleep state after it finishes the backup process, all automatically.

Any advice would be appreciated.
