6.12.3 Drives constantly spinning up for no reason I understand?

Featured Replies

Can anyone tell me if the new 6.12.4 specifically addresses hard drives spinning up for no apparent reason? Wondering whether to upgrade now or (as I normally do) wait and see for a few days.

 

It seems to happen even if I have turned off all dockers as well as VMs and when there are no active shares.

In normal use I would expect the cache drives to remain spun up as well as whatever drive was being accessed by Plex streaming - however for the most part it seems they all spin up - even an unmounted unassigned device.

I have read through numerous threads where this has been reported by others going back several unraid versions and tried some of those 'fixes' - e.g. turning off all dockers and gradually turning them back on to try to identify the culprit - but as it happens when they're all off . . . also switching off temperature sensing/reporting by unloading the drivers of the System Temp plugin.

 

When I manually spin them down it seems to quite cleverly spin down the not currently in use drives, but then next time I check as little as 10 minutes later, they're all spun up again.

Hope someone can help.

 

Diagnostics attached
