    Disks and hybernating

    I have 6 disks in the box, I don't mind as long as they're not all running, that seems a bit excessive. Can I set a different sleep time for different disks or is it all or nothing? For example, I'd like to wake the Backup disk only when I'm backing up.

    Thanks - rev

    Win 10 home, i990k, 32 RAM, 4 HDD, 2 SSD

    BTW: If you've lost your password, click here - doesn't work. I went through the process but no email ever came. I found my pw but I'd already started the 'change password' process, the site refused my pw but I logged in a second time and everything worked.

    For the disk issue, possibly useful link:

    On the password issue, you did not mention what the password was for, so it would be hard to say what the cause of your problem might be.

    For VDR - you have to know the old password in-order to change it to a new password.

    By this time, you should be using something like KeePass to keep track of your passwords.

    It's all or nothing, AFAIK.

    I haven't tried it, but it looks like there is a third party app to see the HD idle timeout.
