I am having a similar problem. I have tried both on and auto positions, but the drive powers itself off at random times.

The blue light still flashes. I have to manually unplug and replug the device. I have NAS2 running on all three computers on the network with it and am plugged in through the router.

Question:

Firmware 1.10 is the latest upgrade from what I can find. What does reinstalling the same firmware upgrade do?

I started a checkdisk after i posted and its been going now close to 24 hours... should i wait for it to finish or pull the power and force firmware update.

That check disk can last up to 72 hrs. I wouldnt suggest pulling the plug. If there is corruption in the firmware and reflashing it didnt work then the force will debug it and not check the version.
