spindown
Set or report timeout after which the device will be spun down. To arm the timeout the device needs at least one more request after setting the timeout. To disable spindown, set the timeout to zero. No further actions are needed in this case.

To spin down a disk after 30 minutes run
atacontrol spindown ad6 1800
dd if=/dev/ad6 of=/dev/null count=1
[...]
You can check the current setting with
atacontrol spindown ad6
