I just wanted to point that some programs will present a problem by mere being installed while some only when actually actively running. Note: there are MANY more apps which will not let disks spin down! Say, I shared video database (watched and paused positions) for my LE Kodi runing at RPis - no sleep. So: if one has active VM, disks will never go to sleep and QNAP too. This last one must be uninstalled, but the Surveillance and Virtualisation station can be installed. Examples are: Surveillance station, Virtualisation station and Download station. My backup QNAP is set to go to sleep when not used. I have QNAP TS-253A - 2 bay units, but it should not matter. That's only for disk spin-down ( disk standby mode) configured on the Control Panel, Hardware page but as you've noticed there's too much constantly going on in the NAS for spin-down to work any more.Īn old post but popped up when I was searching something. ![]() Most but not all Qnap models support WoL.Īs far as I know, neither a power down nor sleep mode can be initiated by inactivity. WoL is special separate circuitry (usually 10 Mbps only for gigabit interfaces) on the LAN interfaces that's only active when the port isn't in normal use but a power cable is still connected to the NAS of course. That's not the WoL feature as the NAS is neither powered down nor in sleep mode (not all Qnap models have sleep mode). What you seem to confuse with WoL is that any request to access the disks, either initiated by a NAS internal process or by a client access over the LAN, will spin the disks up again when they're spun down. WoL is totally pointless when the NAS is already running, as it still is if the disks happen to be spun down. I thought a pre-requisite of WOL was that disks also need to go into standby mode.Īre you saying WOL works even if there is disk activity?Read the Wikipedia link on WoL that I supplied above. ![]() It can be combined with a power schedule but may as well be used separately. Wake-on-LAN is a separate feature that make it possible to manually start the NAS by sending a special wakeup packet to the server via some application, for example the client Qnap app QFinder. Wake-on-LAN doesn't activate your power schedule, you already did that by ticking the option Enable schedule and then clicking the Apply-button. I understand enough Norwegian to read that but most people here probably don't so they won't be able to help you. If you have access to the GUI, I don't think your schedule is working.Īs this is a global English forum, please switch the NAS to English before making screen-shots. I tried making a dormant option from 00:00 -07:00, but I don't know if that is on either as I can't seem to find a place to track power usage/rpm on disks longer than 10 minutes ago.I'm not sure about the Sleep-mode but I wouldn't expect it to be possible to use the user interface at all when it's in sleep mode.
