July 11, 20232 yr I currently have one of my disks set to spin down after 45 min. This one drive is only used as a backup drive (at least for now but starting to run out of space…) so I only need it to spin up for an hour or so Monday mornings when my backup script runs. I noticed however whenever I log into my server the disk spins up. How can I stop it from spinning up when I’m not accessing any data from the drive?
