hdd disappears

I've noticed sometimes my extra hdd will just disappear, and cant be accessed until 
i totally shut down the computer (restart doesnt seem to do it). the drive letters 
are still correct, just that D is missing

my main hdd in ntfs format, and the one that disappears is fat32. i think perhaps 
it has somethign to do with XP putting the hdds to sleep after 20 mins, set in the 
power control panel?
any suggestions?
