What is Advanced Power Management for HDDs about?

The document discusses advanced power management (APM) in disk drives. It describes three APM modes - Mode 0, 1, and 2 - that place the disk drive into different power saving states like active idle, low power idle, and standby based on periods of inactivity. Mode 1 is the default mode, where the drive shifts to low power idle after 10-27.5 seconds of no commands before returning to active idle quickly upon a new command.
