Attached storage spin down

Featured Replies

Posted

I have a direct attached storage shelf and I want the drives to spin down after a delay.

 

I have configured the drives to spin down but they never do. Is this a limitation of the DAS or have I misconfigured something?

How is the DAS attached, post lsscsi or diagnostics

Unraid does not support spin down for SAS devices, try installing the SAS spin down plugin.

Awesome, is there anything special i need to do after installing the plugin? or will it just takeover spin down operations after install?

Not really sure since I don't have SAS devices, but it should be mostly install and work, you can ask in the linked support thread if there are any issues.

No they should just spin down down if supported.
