Lets try again
According to my laptop the software says the usb is off, but when I have my hard drive connected to it, the wd my book stays on and wakes the laptop back up. and when I turn off the computer, the drive stays on.
I have also try my new maxtar hard drive. it will let the computer sleep but the hard drive stays on it also stays on when to laptop is turned off. I just got this computer last week so it should have up to date software. I have also checked the device manger and I think I tried turning off the power option under it driver space there, not 100% sure it was a late nite.
Should I deinstall that driver to see if it wii turn it off?
Can I put a normal usb driver in its place?
