Hello List,
since a couple of days I have an issue with the spin-down function of my
HDD installed in a NAS-2000. When I set up the NAS-2000 several month
ago, I activated the HDD spin-down function via the web front-end with a
delay time of 15 minutes and everything worked perfectly fine.
Last weekend I encountered a mains power failure at my place which also
affected the NAS-2000 which shut down uncontrolled. The device came up
without any obvious errors afterwards except for the fact that the
spin-down function doesn't work any more --> The HDD is constantly on.
In the meanwhile I tried several things, but all to no avail:
- I operated the NAS-2000 with the network cable disconnected to make
sure no nasty computer keeps the drive busy by accessing data.
- I manually set the spin-down time of the HDD with 'hdparm' by logging
in via SSH and executing 'hdparm -k1 -K1 -S120 /dev/hda'. The command
was executed properly and I got the reply below, but the problem remained.
/dev/hda:
setting keep_settings to 1 (on)
setting drive keep features to 1 (on)
setting standby to 120 (10 minutes)
keepsettings = 1 (on)
- I changed the delay time via the web front-end in case it is only
activated after a change of the value.
Any idea on how I can re-activate the spin-down function is welcome!
Thanks in advance,
CB
