The minimum time on the utilities app is 10min. Is there any way to make this less, like 3-5 mins? Or is there any other way to force it to spin down?

Windows 10 really likes to access all drives often, it’s very annoying.

Hi,

Currently, that the minimum that the app allows. Not sure if there’s a non supported option to control that on the unit.

Yeah, I guess it’s a feature request then. :smiley:
