Just transitioned to TrueNAS scale - loving it!
My goal is to keep my power consumption as low power as possible. I've enabled drive spindown per this aim (I'm aware of the controversy regarding the topic...). When I check my power consumption log, I see a 5 minute spike, every half hour. Tips on eliminating that spike?
My configuration is a 9211-8i in IT mode, 4 SAS drives in a ZFS2 pool. This TrueNAS scale server is a VM within Proxmox 8 (Raid card passed through exclusively to TrueNAS).

I do know that if I stop the TrueNAS VM, the spikes stop, so it's definitely TrueNAS.
It's possible something in my network is "pinging" a mapped drive... or could it be a "SMART" setting? Tips on where / how to start looking. Thx!
