My drive seems to accessing the disk all of time.  I can have all of the computers turned off and the read/write light is always flickering and I can hear the head(s) moving.  I am not sure if the heads of both drives are moving or only one.

This seems to be slowing down the performance of the drive.  I have some songs on this drive and when I try to play them back there are pauses.  If I play back the same song between 2 computers on a wireless network there is no problem.

Any thoughts on how to get this drive to do less work?

Thanks

What do you mean by media server?  I checked in services.msc and I can find auto updates but I thought that was for the Windows updating.  Nothing about media server.  I went through the screens on the Linkstation and nothing about media server. 

thanks for any direction that you can provide.

When I log onto the Linkstation using the Web Admin link in the NASNav2 software I don't see a media server link.  I must be missing something.   My choices down the left side of the screen are:

Home

Basic

Network

Disk Management

Shared Folders

Group Management

User Managerment

Web Access

Print Server

Disk Backup

Maintenance

System Status
Logout

I didn't find media server under any of these links either. 

What am I missing?

Thanks,
