Harddisk standby? #1503

Open FritLP opened 1 year ago

FritLP commented 1 year ago

I currently have the problem that my HDD is running 24/7, even when it is not in use. I have already tried a few things to put it into sleep mode, unfortunately without success. It is not due to the disc itself, as it worked in other systems with this disc.

I have merged the HDD with the 32GB memory of my Zimaboard via CasaOS, is this possibly the problem?

Now I wanted to ask whether it would not be possible to integrate such a feature for controlling a hard disc sleep mode directly in CasaOS?

If there is a way to do this, I would be very grateful for a tip.

hard disc sleep is indeed a problem and CasaOS does not handle it well @FritLP.

Can we take care of this issue? Since ZimaBoard highly promotes SATA interface, it looks very important to be able to handle a standby timeout for the spin down. We are talking about durability and power consumption. In my case, I have a 8TB HDD connected to ZimaBoard. In fact, hdparm works, but after the drive woke up suddenly (with no I/O explicit action), it never spins down again, because hdparm was somehow overrided.

I found that udisks2 really has a broken standby timer, but looks like there is a configurable standby under ATA settings. Hope it helps.
