Can't do this currently.

I was debugging the issue about half a year ago. I did some configuration software workarounds, and it made it more usable. One of the things I also did is to add 10 and 15 mins spindown timeouts, and provided developers' feedback on it. I updated today the software and I expected that these shorter spindown would be available in UI. Still the minimum timeout is 30 minutes. Is it possible to add these shorter settings - they will be very helpful when the drive is only occasionally used. MTroy?

Having been running my TNAS for sometime now I thought I would see how the spin-down is behaving.

Considering that this is a home system, that is mainly used for backups, the conclusion is "not very good"
Power_On_Hours = 1003
Head_Flying_Hours = 944
The drives have been spinning for 94% of their power on time :O

I may have to start monitoring my Ubuntu server for comparison.

Hello,

I have recently added two more drives to my F4-210 and have noticed that it always seems to be running even though I have the sleep mode set to 30 minutes.

So I found this thread and I'm just curious if others are still experiencing this problem?!?!?
