DriveStation Eco wakes up/shuts down constantly
« on: December 08, 2009, 02:49:59 PM »
   

Hello,

 

My Drivestation wakes up and shuts down every five to ten minutes no matter do I use my iMac (while using computer, in sleep and idling). Is there any solution to "stabilize" that behavior? It's a bit annoying to hear hard drive waken up all the times..

 

DriveStation™ TurboUSB, HD-CEU2

iMac, Snow Leopard

Time Machine (timed to run every 12 hours - however the problem occurs no matter is Time Machine on or off)

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Pekka

If it does the same thing when you are connected to another mac or pc you do have a 1 year warranty on the device if you would like a replacement.  SOunds like there could be a hardware or firmware issue on this device.
