Hi,
My NAS is a ds1511+. I have set up power options so HDD's Hibernate after 15 minutes of being inactive.
It always seems that even if all my computers and media streamers are turned off, the hard drives still don't seem to Hibernate. Can hear them working whenever I walk past the room with the NAS in it.
Status and LAN lights stay green also, I am fairly sure that the status is ment to change to orange during Hibernate. Can anyone confirm this for me.
I have Download station set up so I know that will keep it all running when it is in use. But even when I Stop all downloads due to reaching my monthly limit too early, It still does not seem to Hibernate.
Would having hard drives never Hibernating or being turned off shorten there lifespan.
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
