As I understand it, IDLE simply means the disk isn't currently being
used, and is not the same as STANDBY, so I would interpret this to mean
that it has not been spun down. If that's the case then your problem
may be elsewhere. You might try testing again with the disk unmounted
(so the dialogue doesn't attempt to open it).
