Selective Drive Powerdown
In OS X's energy saver control panel you can elect to spin down drives when not in use. There appears to be no way, through this interface, to choose WHICH drives you want to be affected by that choice. I want that to be true for all but the system drive. Is there a plist somewhere I can edit that will exempt the system drive from this setting?

The "solution" is not correct. Obviously the drives will go to sleep if the system is asleep. The setting to spin down the drives relates to when the system is awake.

True. I just split the points evenly to the commenting experts because the actual answer is just "no". If you prefer to have me redesignate the "best solution", you can raise an objection and I'll reassign.
