Getting TS-101 to 'sleep'

[TerryHawkins]

I have just installed SlimServer on my QNAP TS-101 and everything is working fine.

However, is there anyway to get it to sleep when my SqueezeBox is in standby, at the moment its on 24/7.

Thanks

Terry - do a search for posts on your TS101 'sleeping'. There are a lot of them...........

Another keyword to search for would be 'spindown' or 'spin-down' (as in spin down of the hard disk).

It's a bit hit'n'miss but in summary:
- disable all/most plug-ins (especially clock screensaver)
- make sure host pc is not constantly scanning ts-101's drive (for viruses etc)
