HDD spins down - Raspberry Pi Forums


i've bought external s-ata2usb connected hdd (wd blue, 1tib), replaced disk wd blue 512gib disk , connected pi root device (did upgrade laptop brand new hdd ;) ).

problem: drive spins down after approx 1 second of idling. far not of problem wakes when needed, fear decreases life span of disk significantly. chance due misconfiguring in raspbian? or, if drive or interface, can flashed somehow stay alive?

tia.

i have same drive same issue. known issue. check google. has agressive power saving parameters in firmware. there issue smart values. not know anymore is, has value rapidly increases every time drive spins up. couple of months value high , indicates failure of drive.

there firmware not official has been altered drive doesn't spin down anymore.
