[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1085606, member: 46727"] Not that I know of. As long as the drives are connected, the system will "look" at all of them when doing any kind of file maintenance. The only way to avoid that is to eject those drives not in use. Is it necessary to keep all your drives attached rather than mount them as needed and eject when no longer needed? Regards. [/QUOTE]
