obzrve why do you want to "control the power"?? Are you running Linux Backups are easy. plug in your stat drive and kick off a cron job. Even if you still want to "control the power with a arduino. you will have to wait for the OS to find the drive and spin up. skip the arduino and go straight to the cron job.
