Data Hoarder

We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

On my old PC my secondary HDD would keep spinning when I restarted my PC, but on my new one it spins down and spins back up on restart which I don't want as it's not good for the drive.

I have the B650 Tomahawk Motherboard - Is there perhaps some sort of setting I can change? Thanks.
