Abstract
A method is used in managing disk drive power saving in data storage systems. Multiple data storage systems storage elements capable of operating in a power saving mode are identified and grouped into a RAID group. One or more logical units are created from the RAID group. The one or more logical units are exposed to a server. The one or more logical units are associated to an application at the server. Power saving settings are determined. A power saving mode based on the power saving settings is enabled.
