Spin down HDD

Status: New
by on ‎05-10-2011 07:02 PM

I would like to have a configuration entry where I could set up a timeout after which the internal / external hdd would spin down.

It could spin up again if some disk activity is needed, but leaving the hdd running 24hs/day looks like a lot of energy waste, besides of causing it to wear out.
