I have installed a mechanical 2GB SATA6 HD in my HackMini8,1 for TimeMachine and other backup storage. An annoying side effect is that some simple actions are delayed while waiting for the drive to spin-up (e.g. when I click Safari > File > New Window, the new window doesn't appear until the HD spins-up).
Is there a way to disable macOS search for the mechanical HD while it remains "visible" to TimeMachine and "visible" in Finder (so I can still use it a storage for my hack)?
