Hi all.
Can anybody tell me if the smartd daemon would cause a hard drive (both internal or external) that has spun down to spin up ?
I am thinking of installing it on a media server but i won't if it will spin up the drives whenever it does a smart test.
These drives spin down after 20 mins of non use to save power. I don't want then spinning up just for a smart test.
Kind regards
