Hard Drive battery consumption

[lusec001@xxxxxxxxxx]

Hi Guys,

I am currently developing a project which tries to minimize the
consumption of battery in laptops avoiding as much as possible the use of
the hard drive. To evaluate if our implementation is doing well, we need
to know how is the consumption of energy in the laptop or even better how
much power consumes the hard drive in a period of time.

Thanks in advance,

Luis Useche.
