And I think even that is not really good for the disks. In worst case they are working, then they are sleeping and a minute after going to sleep they are woken up and then they go to sleep again, woke up after a minute etc. I think this would kill them really fast. NAS drives are made to work 24/7, not to sleep and start again. The drives are warming up, cooling down, warming up, cooling down etc., this is really stress for them. pi4 4gb picoreplayer with lms and squeezelite for usb inside an argon one case pi3b+ (7\" display, hifiberry dac+ pro) picoreplayer with squeezlite/jivelite for hifiberry and bluetooth headphone inside a smartipi touch case two airport express ikea symfonisk ------------------------------------------------------------------------ carsten_h's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=69113 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111787 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
