Control4 keeps my NAS awake 24/7 - why ?

Hi

 

I am running 2.5.3 on my small HC250 which is connected to my music share on my Qnap NAS.

I noticed that whenever my HC250 is turned on it prevents my hard drives on my Qnap NAS to go to sleep even if no data is requested (no music streaming, no other PCs accessing the NAS in any way).

 

In media management of my HC250 automatic scan of my NAS folder is disabled.

 

As soon as I unplug my HC250 the disks go to sleep after the selected time ( and that even if shares are mounted with other PCs - though not actively transmitting data).

 

Is this a known issue or did anyone observe something similar?

 

thx

I have a similar problem with a QNAP TS-469U  NAS.

 

Alan I bought your Generic TCP driver and the WOL function works nicely to wake up the NAS

 

Is there a command I can send from your driver to put it to sleep

Thanks

Steve

There is no equivalent to WOL for sleep for a device.  The QNAP may have a HTTP command to shut it down however i am not an expert at QNAPs.  You may need to do some investigation on the QNAP forums or ask their support for a HTTP command.  If so then the generic TCP driver will work for it.
