This seems a little bit hacky. I know this workaround but I think there is also a need to have this possibility in the ui. This is why I want to discuss this topic in the forum. I do this for my documents. I can think about music and photos, too. But I also don't want to spin up my drives multiple times a day watching a video. I think an uptime of 12h is more efficient than 3-4 spin-ups a day. At weekends I often watch a show in the morning, then during the day and maybe a movie in the afternoon. The spin-down delay is too static to reflect a weekday and weekend scenario. Maybe there is vacation time too. We need a flexible option here 🙏🏼

Thank you for the info. I appreciate your work. It would be nice if this is build into the core software functionality 🙏🏼

I want to have the possibility to filter logs by text to have a better overview of corresponding lines. I configured my docker containers to log to the Unraid system log and there is a big amount of text. It would be awesome to type "plex" and get all lines with that string in it. Or when I type "/dev/sde" I see the activity of this drive. This would help in many scenarios ❤️

Thank you for the reply and your concerns. What bothers me is that I would like to have my media drive (music, movies, ...) spun up at day and spun down at night. I do not want to wait until a disc is spun up when I access some music files or a tv show. I do not want to spin up the disc multiple times a day because the spin down delay is set to a minimum either. If the spin down delay is higher so that this does not happen at day, the drive will be active quite some time in the night. I hope I could describe this a little bit better now 😃 Idea: The cron job configures a must be active / spin up of discs time. Then the spin down delay does not work. After that time a disc spins down if no activity is registered. Now it behaves "as normal" and spins up again on activity and down after the delay. The next day or so the cron job is active again and the disc spins up.

It would be awesome to have the possibility to configure cron jobs instead of just a spin down delay for discs in the ui. Unraid is a pretty energy saving os so I would prefer to further adjust spin ups / downs. I loved using the feature with my Synology and would be happy to have a similar thing in Unraid too ❤
