Windows 7
Need to stop all my seagate external usb hdd going to sleep
Already have selected in windows options for power settings

usb selective suspend settings - disabled

looking for solution / program that keeps them awake.

"Go into device manager, to the USB root hubs, and turn off the save power option. Also try to do it for your disk too under hard disks (it may not have this option, but check anyway)."

Hope that helps.
