Any idea how to turn on StanBy mode

Hi all, just got 3TB My home unit, and for the 4 days (that’s how long i got it) it never went to stand by. I turned off my auto backup on my phone and for now the only way to get it to turn of is TO turn it off from app. Any idea how to resolve this? Thanks all.

Hi @IvanViduljevic,

Please refer below link to check more information : Error

Hope it helps!!

I am now 100% sure, this device has no Stand by mode, it turns disk 100% of time, so it has more power consumption and for me this was bad purchase.
