Ok, here's my current status:

-I removed one of my CD roms
-I changed my power cables configuration: one cable powers 1 HD(sec.) and the videocard 
- 1 powers the DVD and other HD(prim.). I got only 2 HD/CD power cables with 3 plugs 
each. No fans plugged to these cables.

My HD spin down is even worse now, it occurs even when I drag/select icons in a window!

BIOS indicates that my 12v is running at around 12v
Sandra 2005 is indicating that my 12v is running at 15.50v!!! It was the same before 
the setup change.

I'm confused.

I'll try another PSU cable and I'm reluctant to plug this straight into the wall 
jack because of lightning strike hazard! :) I'll leave it plugged into my powerbar.
I'll try different cables configs also.
