December 9, 20241 yr Was this recently added or changed? I've been noticing that over the past couple months, my disks were always spinning. I used to see most of them spun down when I checked but now they spinning all the time unless I hit the spin down button then they stay off until accessed. I saw this Default spin down delay in the settings and I swore I had something like this set to 15 minutes. But mine was set to "Never" I didn't change that. Did the parameter change or somehow get reset to "Never" with some OS upgrade I did? Thanks, Jim

About a year ago I reduced the number of slots I had. I might have had to do a new config for that!! I'll bet you that was it. Ugh! that means I've been wasting a whole bunch of energy for a year now!!! 😲 Thanks for probably helping me solve that mystery!!!
