Comment on NAS Power Consumption
WhyJiffie@sh.itjust.works 3 weeks agoThe problem seems to be that even with a perfectly clean slate, no services running, the system set up in their own RAID0 SSD pool, the HDD’s, even with 0 bytes of data on them, are being pinged for access at least once a minute.
if it’s for drive health stats, and the device runs linux, hd-idle could help. it only counts actual block device (so, storage) access as activity

They run a custom vendor-locked distro named QTS, so they're not really as easy to modify as a normal system, I don't think you can even install programs like that.
I'll definitely bookmark it though if I ever get around to building my own solution, thanks!
