Having said that, one thing you could try is putting something in your  
frontend startup script that touches a file on the spun down disk e.g.  
if you have a separate front-/back-end setup, you could mount a 'spun  
down' volume via NFS on the frontend, and just touch a file as the  
frontend comes up. That assumes that you shut down your frontend when  
you're not using it.

I haven't tried it, but it might work.
