Hi,
Can you tell me what the current status is with 'removable storage'?
All my storage is remote on a server and to save power I set all the drives (there are now 10!) to power save. This works well and also stops the server over heating (you do get a few second delay when you try to watch a program on a sleepy drive, but no big deal).
To get this to work with the plugin I obviously tick the config option to not remove deleted shows from the DB, otherwise when it scans and everything is asleep they all disappear. This is ok, but it does mean I have to periodically either manually clean up the DB or wake all the drives, change the option and do a full re-scan.
Does your new removable storage plan also take into account sleepy storage!
