[QUOTE="hafblade, post: 878011, member: 110423"] Interesting thoughts. Do they spin up while coming from standby or while the start of MediaPortal? The following is only an idea. I've not tested this! I suppose that all will spin up when MediaPortal starts due to the plugins which scan there folders on the hard drive and so on. If you would prevent MediaPortal Client from starting every time when the pc starts the spinning could stop. Don't know if there is something to prevent them from spinning up. I suppose that they all only spin up when they are needed by some software. Furthermore I don't believe that it's such a large power consumption and hard disc decay if they start 10 times a day.
