Hmm, have you compared physical RDM vs virtual RDM? According to Flexraid's docs, the physical RDM can pass SMART info and can spin down: (but virtual RDMs can't)

Can't say that I have.  Have always just followed the Atlas thread to RDM drives but Johnm did mention physical.  I have seen posts that suggest some of the info is available with physical but not sure how much or if spin down with unRAID works.

I'll try it on my new build and report back to that thread. Won't be able to continue until I'm back from my trip this Sunday though.

 

Thanks for the info so far :)
