Is there a way to control D5-300 spin down?

[mediaguru]

I have 4 of the 5 slots filled in my D5-300, directly connected to my Mac M1 Pro Max laptop. Whether or not I'm accessing the drives, they spin down constantly. Then when I need to access something, my whole system is on hold while all four drives spin back up. Is there a way of making the sleep time longer? Also, the drives spin up and spin down even when the laptop is in sleep mode.

Thanks for any help you may be able to provide.

The spin-up or spin-down of D5-300 depends on the signal your computer provides. You can try to modify the relevant settings about battery or power supply in the settings of Mac.
