Folks,
Is there a simple way to set the 5800 into standby mode after no use?
Sure, I saw the sleep timer option under management... but that seems to set it to wake at a certain time, and sleep at a certain time... and I just want it to sleep after 15 or 20 minutes after no disk access. Then I can use WakeOnLAN to bring it back up.
I'm using my TeraStation as a backup to my home server, so the time of use of the box is limited to me running a random manual backups, rather than a predictable time plan.
So, my intent would be:
1) from my living room, use my laptop to send a WakeOnLan packet to the TeraStation in my basement, in a closet.
2) run my manual backup
3) have the TeraStation standby after I'm done
rinse, lather, repeat.
I know that I can power off the system from the Settings menu... but that's a hard power off rather than standby. (...right??? I see that there is still power to the ports even if off.)
Thoughts?
