Message:

• COMMAND_IDLE was not enough to disable standby timer from 1,8" Toshiba HDD. Apparently idle mode is the default mode. Added COMMAND_STAND_BY and that does what COMMAND_IDLE was supposed to do. Without COMMAND_STAND_BY the 1,8" Toshiba HDD experienced some random pauses (=>retry/abort... prompts) especially with Freedos 1.3RC4 but MS-DOS 7.10 (Win98) was mostly OK.
• Added FEATURE_ENABLE_ADVANCED_POWER_MANAGEMENT command to set drive to maximum performance mode when standby timer is disabled. This feature needs a bit more work. See TODO comments in sources.
