Performance Idle
The device is capable of responding immediately to idle media access requests.  All 
electronic components remain powered and the full frequency servo remains opera-
tional.
Active idle
The device is capable of responding immediately to media access requests. Some cir-
cuitry—including servo system and R/W electronics—is in power saving mode. The 
head is parked near the mid-diameter the disk without servoing.  A device in Active 
idle mode may take longer to complete the execution of a command because it must 
activate that circuitry.
Low power idle
The head is unloaded onto the ramp position.  The spindle motor is rotating at full 
speed.
