January 21, 20206 yr Community Expert Not entirely clear what you mean. Are you mounting it with the Unassigned Devices plugin? Or do you have it in the array somehow?

Doing it through USB is also a hit-and-miss. However, most external HDD controllers will spin down on its own after a while without any user intervention. If yours isn't spinning down, it's likely that something is still accessing the drive.

But I used Synology's usb device sleep function before using unRaid and it is supported under the same conditions (installed a docker of jellyfin and set its media path with my usb device) even without use the hdparm command. I don't know which process accessing the drive when I'm not using the jellyfin docker.
