Backup to USB drive and power it off when not in use

On Linux, it is possible to power off a USB device using command line. It’s perfect for my USB backup drive. I can power it off after backup every night, and power it on before the job starts. This saves power, reduce heat, and more importantly, prevent accidental or unexpected changes as the device is completely offline.
