Ask by linux kernel add or delete a hdd
0 likes8 views
To temporarily delete a HDD in Linux, echo 1 to the device/delete file for that drive's block device. To permanently delete before suspend, create a script in /etc/pm/sleep.d/ that echoes 1 to device/delete when suspending. To add the drive back, echo a scan command to each scsi host and restart the system.

Or the HDD need to be deactivated Permanently,
