Title: Spindown with 'open' Stock Firmware?
Post by: anderlecht on February 17, 2010, 09:21:29 AM
   
Hello,

is it possible to spindown the hard disk in my Linkstation Live (new) running stock firmware (v. 2.11)?

I have telnet and ssh access - but cant install 'noflushd' (because apt-get and aptitude are not installed)
and cant use 'hdparm' - tells me 'operation not supported on SCSI disks"...

Is there a way to set the HD idle after a certain time?

Thanks in advance!
Micha

Please post about this elsewhere.  We do not support the use of telnet on our devices.  Anymore posts will be removed.

Sorry for the wrong post.

Is there a way to spindown the disks without telnet or ssh?

I sent you a private message about one of my threads that i started that would be best closed.

I've seen alot of people complain about the lack of spindown on the Linkstation so it would be a good idea if you add it to the  " idea exchange lounge " as  i'm sure it would get votes.

I deleted it for you.
Blexley is right.  One of our frequent posters has been pushing for it for a while.  The more requests that we get the more likely the developers are to make changes.
