April 28, 20233 yr Hi all I want to try out the spin down option in Unraid but i want to do it correct. I have a Dell T350 with a controller PERC H345 Adapter. I dont use the RAID function but i can see in the Idrac settings it is enabled What will you recommend to do? Thanks! Regards Daniel
April 28, 20233 yr Community Expert Most RAID controllers don't support spin down, you'd need a true HBA.

May 1, 20233 yr Community Expert It spins down all drives, drives in use will immediately spin back up.
