etnicor Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 Hello, evaluating(haven't installed trial yet, just reading) if I should buy/try Unraid but wonder how the internals of spindown of disks work? Is it some job which runs i background which trigger spindown based on disk activity or something else?(Can't find any docs and no source to look at?) Have three Toshiba MG09 which have been problematic on debian/ubuntu to automatically spindown. Have had to write scripts to handle it. Basically my script have been looping to check if disk is in activate state and if so apply hdparm -S 240 /dev/..(disks do not seem to remember the -S option, don't know if disks are supposed to remember it). Wonder if implementation in Unraid is different. Quote Link to comment
