[1.06] No sleep for the HDDs
« on: January 20, 2009, 04:40:13 AM »
I've upgraded from 1.05 to 1.06.
It appears that my 2 x 1TB WD HDDs will not sleep now.
It is constantly on and spinning.
It makes the box rather warm to touch.

I downgraded back to 1.05 and everything is fine again. (it goes back to sleep over the pre-determined time)
I believe this problem might be mentioned in another forum.
However, I cannot find any solutions to it. (maybe it will be fixed in 1.07)

I do like the ps3 media streaming and ssl ftp (if anyone knows the port ranges to forward) functions in 1.06.

Has anyone also experienced this problem??

There are similar reports from other users having the same problem with 1.06.

Also suffering from this problem. I have searched for a solution and had led me to this site.

Any updates from the dlink support team?

Try resetting the unit to factory defaults if this has not been done since updating to 1.06. Are you using the iTunes server or UPnP AV media server function with any device currently?

OK will try this out. To answer some of your questions, yes iTunes is enabled and no, the UPnP AV media is disabled.

I use the iTunes to stream music to my Roku soundbridge which I use on a daily basis

I have everything turned off and reset my settings after I installed 1.06.

It simply does not work. Nothing shuts off and the fans seem to take forever to come on. I've personally mentioned it a few times and well still nothing. I was hoping that 1.07 would address it, but instead I"m stuck with 1.05 that does appear to work and the lack of raid rebuilding that 1.06 does offer.

Looking at 1.08 it appears that this problem is still not going to be addressed which is sad. I really want to get really loud and maybe get heard, but at this point I'm sure its not going to get addressed because since several of us have complained nothing has been done.

I have the same problem, too.

I disabled UPnP, iTunes, e-mail alerts, DHCP cient, almost everything. I have also done a reset to factory default settings but nothing changed. The problem is still there.

D-Link, please give a solution to this very frustrating problem.

I have tried your suggestion, but it did not work.

Here is what I've done so far:

took out the old drive (RHS)
inserted new drive
reinstalled 1.06 FW
reset to factory default
reformated the new drive
FTP, UPnP, iTunes, LLTD all are disabled
No files on the new drive (not even FFP, transmission etc.....)
Synced time to pool.ntp.org
configured power management to 10 minutes

the disk still spins well after 10 minutes

Do they spin down if all PCs are turned off?

No, they don't in my case.
All PCs and WiFi turned off, but the HDDs do not spin down.

But after downgraded back to 1.05, they spin down as normal.
It appears to be firmware related.

Icewater,

what lights are lighted, dimmed, flickering after the prescribed time has elapsed on your power management?

In my test, I have unpluged the ethernet cable and after a few minutes of stand by the box woke up again.
