Hi all. I am curious what most people are doing about spinning down their hard drives and noise settings. I have set up this server in the basement which > 90% of the time is sitting there just spinning, doing nothing. I always keep my computers on all the time, guess I've bought into the notion that they last longer that way.
The default setting is always on and acoustic disabled. I have three SeaGate green drives, which are also supposed to be very quiet and low energy. I wonder if I should spin them down after a time and set the noise level to minimum. What are you experts doing?
Thanks,
IMF
