Cytomax Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 Hello all i have come into possession of a few Green Drives from Western Digital and would like to change the the idle time to 5 minutes as recommended by some people. I have searched high and low and cant find the download link for WD's wdidle3.exe. Every time i try to go to this website to download the wdidle3.exe i get forwarded to a generic download page for WD. http://support.wdc.com/product/download.asp?groupid=609&sid=113 forwards me here http://support.wdc.com/downloads.aspx?DL I found this link for an open source solution but i would just prefer the official WD version http://idle3-tools.sourceforge.net/ Any direct links to the official download for wdidle3.exe Thanks in Advance Quote Link to comment
Cytomax Posted October 27, 2015 Author Share Posted October 27, 2015 Well no luck with Western Digital but I found wdidle3 V1.05 on the Ultimate Boot CD http://www.ultimatebootcd.com/ It was added on July 30, 2011 for Version 5.1.0. Hope this helps someone else in the future. Quote Link to comment
