Here is how to configure external hard drive power management so that the drive spins up when the file share is active and goes into power-saving mode when it is not in use.

Here is previous video where we configured Samba server:

here's some commands:
sudo hdparm -B /dev/sda

smb.conf

[global]
Spin down idle drives after 10 minutes
idle spin delay = 600
[myshare]
comment = My shared folder
path = /mnt/mydrive
browseable = yes
read only = no
guest ok = no
create mask = 0755
directory mask = 0755
valid users = pi
preexec = /usr/sbin/hdparm -B 255 /dev/sda
