curiously, even after its usb cord was disconnected from the pc, the hdd still refused to spin down.

is this normal for this hdd series (amazingly, nothing is turning up on google)?
 
aw man, i'm getting no responses.

the part number is: BR389AA

here is the product page:

in addition, this thing is really, really slow. it has an average scanning speed of twenty one mbps, which is hardly enough for a hd video. am i doing something wrong here?

i bought this from a guy who was nice enough to offer to give me my money back if i don't want it. i actually kind of want to take him up on that, if i can't improve the drive's performance.
