Different disks; looks like desktop types.
That means something else is waking up those disks. To verify
this use something like:
FS are not mounted and arrays stopped. There is nothing that wakes them up.
If a switch them off manually with hdparm -Y they stay off.
Are you polling them with smartmontools? I have a unit here where I had
to add the "standby" :
DEVICESCAN -s (L/../../7/07|S/../../[1-6]/00) -n standby,q -m root -M
exec /usr/share/smartmontools/smartd-runner
.. clause in smartd.conf. This ensures smartd does not wake the disk
every 15 minutes for it's poll, and only polls if the drive is already
spinning.
Failing that, I'd put it to sleep and it'd wake up on the next 15
minutes smart poll.
