As the subject says i'm trying to spin down/turn off/ put in energy safe/etcetc automatically my usb disk.
I'm running 5.x and the only way to reliably calm down my disk was to umount it. The 'trick' was to use automount and periodically check & umount it, but i thought there should be better ways to handle it (or at least i hope so :). (from: "Fun With Automounting on FreeBSD" - http://www.daemonnews.org/200202/automounting.html) Any other ideas/suggestions? How do you do it? Any help from the recent ATA/SCSI/CAM/etcetc driver? It's quite annoying when your brand new USB disk starts getting hotter and hotter cause the bloody usb case is too little and there's no air circulation/fan at all... Thanks. -- Paolo _______________________________________________ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
