Do adaptec raid controllers listen to the windows 7 command to power down idle harddisk when they are not being used in raid on a raid controller or does the raid controller have to be configured to do it in bios or drivers?

I cant tell if it turns the raid drives off or not. my raid card does not seem to have such options in the bios either.

because I dont want them running all the time I rather it just listen to the windows 7 command rather then set up "adptec Intelligent Power Management"
