Waiting for disks to wake up can be a frustrating experience for content creators who often work with media files located on multiple disks. Disksomnia 3.0 has been completely rewritten and works seamlessly in the background to keep any local disk awake, including those that ignore Energy Saver preferences.

Note: Disksomnia does not support network disks.
