Good day all!
Here's the issue, got me a new internal 750GB HDD the other week to use as the TM HDD. So I "installed" the HDD, set up TM and let it go about its business. All is good! The issue I'm having is, the TM HDD will NOT stay spun down. I.E. it will do the back up on the hour, spin down when its done the back up and in a few minuets its spins back up again and it just keeps doing this every five minuets over and over again. This wouldn't bother me if the TM HDD was really quite, but its not. In the system prefs I have the "Put the hard disk(s) to sleep when possible" on. There is nothing but the back up on this drive. So is there a way to "force" that HDD to sleep/ spin down? Is there some script I could run to make it do this? Any help or ideas would be great!
Thanks all!
