wepee Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Hi All, My disk array will spin down after 30mins has lapsed of no disk activity. It is working ok. However, under unassigned devices (extra disks attached- that is not attached to the array), I have to manually spin the disks down. Is there a plugin that will do it automatically?

I installed the one with the "thumbs up" icon. But.... I could not find any setting about spin down option for disk inactivity. Sure it is the right one?

Only if you need to access other filesystems on a drive that unRaid doesn't natively support @Squid I may need to use Unassigned Device plugin someday, if I have got an USB attached hard disk. My goal is to have my Unassigned Devices (disks) to spin down. So, I have installed UD plugin (thumbs up version), then just leave it as it is? UD plugin will spin it down automatically?
