For windows it's an add-on http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/prevent-har...epalivehd/
For Android ->Android just wasn't designed with HDDs in mind is the feedback. You can't do it from Android, you need a drive (enclosure inteerface) As far as I know it's not a "box feature" that'll be advertised on the enclosure: either it does it, or it doesn't. here's a link that spells out some hardware https://forums.geforce.com/default/topic...hen-sleep/ that stays awake! I guess you're looking for some add-on that toggles the HD after a while (look into the the actual hard drive specs, it might be possible to set a jumper to not spin down). I had this issue with an external on a windows system, my solution was to just get rid of it.
I know that none of this is satisfactory, but at least we're listening.
