"waking" a DNS-320 from windows
« on: June 02, 2015, 08:41:04 AM »
Hi All,

My DNS-320 is on all the time, however I have set the hard drive to go to sleep after 5mins iirc.

When I run a script from my server to transfer files from the server to the nas it errors as the nas is unavailable.

The nas is not asleep so this is not a wake on lan question, any one managed to have the nas power down unnecessary functions but "wake" when required via a script?

If I click on the drive letter in Computer it fires to life after a couple of seconds, same for the web interface.  It's purely the script that is having the issue.

I've already set it to wait 30seconds (using wait.exe) but that doesn't seem to have worked.

What result do you get when using dir <NASdriveletter> from the command line?  If that works to wake the NAS you could prefix your script with that but pipe the output to dev nul.
