drive: ASUS - BC-12D2HT (revision level: 3.01, vendor specific: WM00900KD7I5PG4206)
C:\tools\redumper-2023.10.29_build243-win64\bin\redumper.exe cd --verbose --drive-type=LG_ASU83 --drive-read-method=BE_CDDA

...
[LBA: 334481] subcode desync (shift: +0)
LG/ASUS: searching lead-out in cache (LBA: 345040)
error: read cache failed, SCSI (SC: CHECK CONDITION, SK: ILLEGAL REQUEST, ASC: INVALID FIELD IN CDB)

The drive is left spinning at maximum speed until another application uses the drive.

There is no software control of drive motor and other hardware capabilities, drive firmware decides when to spin it down.
