Mac G4 won't go sleep anymore

I've recently installed a 120GB WD drive in my G4 to replace a 20GB that came with the computer. I'm using it as boot drive with Mac OS 10.4. My computer won't go to sleep anymore. I re-installed my old 20GB drive with the same OS. It works fine. I've also tried installing another 120GB WD drive, with OS 10.4. Computer still won't go to sleep. Looks like a problem with the 120 GB drives and not with Tiger
Has anybody encountered this problem? Any idea how to fix it? I checked with Western Digital support and I didn't find anything suggesting a problem with sleep on Mac g4.
