SCSI H/D ID and initialization question

[Ferrari]

I've got a question, I hope someone will be able to help:

SCSI card: Adaptec 29160
Hard Drives: 1 Cheetah X15, 2 Atlas 10KII

I have a different OS on each drive, Win2K, ME, XP RC1. I use these drives independently, and whenever I want to go to a specific OS I just boot off a specific SCSI ID. I only use that specific drive when I'm in the OS, but the other 2 drives spin for no reason. Is there a way to set up the SCSI card to initialize only the boot drive, and leave the other 2 dormant?

Thanks

I'm fairly sure there isn't a way I know that cheetah must be loud, my friend has an atlas 2 10k and it's loud.

To be safe though... you'd better just send me the card and drives to make sure something's not broken... yeah... broken...

Go into the SCSI BIOS each time and remove all except that drive from the device search and make sure the re-search on each boot is enabled.

Edit: and disable the "start" signal. iirc, those are all standard Adaptec BIOS settings.
