I'm looking for a terminal command or something I can make an Automator action for to disable / turn off the power to a Core Duo MacBook's Superdrive. Asleep or awake, it makes random drive access noises (the normal wake/power-on noise, except outside those parameters).
I'd open it up and reseat it (if that's the cause), but I don't have the time right now. A command or script to turn it off would be a nice workaround until I can dig into it.
