I'm trying to find a solution for days now.

 

I have file activity enabled and it's not showing any file activity at all but disks keep spinning up. 

I have dynamix cache dirs installed and I believe this could be the reason for disks starting up. 

 

Here I use a unassigned device for everything like downloading from usenet, creating isos, working etc and all the rest like dockers are set to use cache only/prefer. 

 

I'm attaching the log of dynamix in case someone has any idea of what is going on and hopefully a solution.

 

cache_dirs_new.log

I'm still trying to figure this out;

 

 

This is my sabnzbd config. 

Just INCOMPLETE that is set to ONLY use cache and unassigned device. 

 

Should I change /mnt/user/INCOMPLETE to /mnt/cache so it stops accessing the array?

 

The mount at /mnt/user/INCOMPLETE would be a user share.  UD disks are mounted at /mnt/disks/.

 

You might want to look at this:

 

Yes, I have Dynamix Cache Dirs installed but I have set which folders I want it to cache, like mentioned in that post.

 

Now, I have uninstalled this plugin and I don't have any array activity while downloading to UD.

 

The only side effect would be that browsing a share with windows would start spinning up the disks.
