Question for the list & SCSI gurus...
Is there any code that will allow SCSI drives to spin down after X amount
of unused time? I have 3 different RAID 0 arrays (7 3 and 4 drives) that
are in my server system. The data on them is not often updated and is
backed up whenever it is.. (Which is why I chose level 0. I realize the
problems I'm gonna have if one drive goes down.) But one of the drive
arrays is rarely used (like less than once a week for about 5 hours total).
However, the drives are constantly on & spinning - generating heat and
shortening their life span.
Is there anything that will allow me to spin these drives down after, say,
2 hours of unused time and then will cleanly spin them back up when they
are accessed?
Thanks!
Brandon!
