An apparatus and associated methodology for a data storage system having an enclosure containing a plurality of drives that are individually selectable to transfer data corresponding to an execution of input/output (I/O) commands between the data storage system and another device. A memory in the enclosure temporarily stores unexecuted I/O commands, and a power supply device is capable of simultaneously operating all of the plurality of drives in support of multiple transfers of data. A power management device operably reduces a power output of the power supply device in response to a forecasted interruption in the transfer of data with one of the drives at a time when an unexecuted I/O command for the one of the drives resides in the memory. |
