Custom Policy to Turn off Hard Drive for both Battery and Plugged in
I have created 5 OMA-URI Power Policies to turn off the display, sleep etc, and I am trying to create one for Turning Off Hard Drive both for Battery and Plugged in and I can not find any Scopes/Sub Categories or Policy names that relate to the hard drive, has this ability been removed? I know I can do it with a PowerShell Script, but I would prefer it as an OMA-URI, unless PowerShell is the preferred way for handling all Power settings.
Also, when working with the Power Settings, I know the choices are battery or plugged in, so under the plugged in setting do I need to separate Laptops from Desktops, or since they are both plugged is the device type irrelevant?
HI,
From my understanding these are the only CSP which could be configured
I am also using a powershell script to deploy other power settings which are not available with the CSP (yet?)

HI
If I am looking at the settings catalog... But I guess you will need to have the latest insider build
