About power-save mode

If approximately thirty minutes pass without data being written to or read from a disk, a Zip drive will automatically stop rotation of the disk. This is referred to as Auto Power Save mode (Sleep mode). This function limits the power consumption and extends the life of the disk. When you perform a read or write operation on the disk, it will return to its normal state. This will take two or three seconds.
