from the hdparm manual

-Y Force an IDE drive to immediately enter the lowest power consumption
sleep mode, causing it to shut down completely. A hard or soft reset is
required before the drive can be accessed again (the Linux IDE driver
will automatically handle issuing a reset if/when needed). The current
power mode status can be checked using the -C flag.

so - you need a hard or soft reset to go on ...
