I'm using PogoPlug Debian with a hard drive. sda1 main system partition and sda3 for data. What's the best way to put hard drive to sleep so it will stop spinning. I already tried hd-idle but it just stopped the whole system and then I couldn't even access PogoPlug. Is it possible to stop hard drive spinning until I connect to transmission or CouchPotato/SickBeard would request to wake up the hard drive? https://forum.doozan.com/read.php?2,14554,14554#msg-14554 Sun, 15 Mar 2026 15:08:39 -0500 Phorum 5.2.23 https://forum.doozan.com/read.php?2,14554,14561#msg-14561 https://forum.doozan.com/read.php?2,14554,14561#msg-14561 So, best solution would be to have the system on USB, NAND or whatever and only using the drive for storage. IF, spindown is mandatory for you, that is. ;-)]]> ingmar_k Debian Mon, 23 Dec 2013 09:52:50 -0600 https://forum.doozan.com/read.php?2,14554,14554#msg-14554 https://forum.doozan.com/read.php?2,14554,14554#msg-14554 Almaz Debian Sun, 22 Dec 2013 20:55:16 -0600
