This is possibly a feature of the dock. They spin down the disk when it's idle for a while. Some disks also can do that.
Use "hdparm" to check the power status of the dock/disk. I don't remember the exact command line options; the man page and calling the command without options should help.
The odd thing is that the disk should spin up by itself when you access it again. That takes a few moments. A simple "ls" of the folder should be enough to trigger this.
My way of seeing of some disk is present is do a "cat proc/partitions". The dock with the disk in it is gone. Is there a better way to see if there is a disk ? I'm going to try that hdparm, but with this you have to specify a device. I'm going to look if the device is still there. It will be this evening though. Thanks.
