I remembered this thread when the following happend today while playing good old rick dangerous;

As we all know it is impossible to finish rick dangerous in a short time without cheats. So I got an unlimited live cheat using the whdload version of rick. After a few minutes of play I switched off my monitor and left the amiga on to continue later. When I got back the harddisk had spun down. I thought my amiga went to bit-heaven but when I turned on the monitor the game was still there where I left it and all still functioned.

It must have been the hdsleep program that runs in the background. It turns off the HD after it has not been used for some time.

What you could do is install this tool and set the time very short. Or use that script function to tweak the time for each individual game.

Hope this helps.
