This should configure the drive to turn off the power management. In theory, the "Disk Control" option in StableBit Scanner is capable of doing this as well, and persistent after reboot. I had a WHS V1 server for the last 7 years and the SMART scanner on it never indicated there was a problem. I didn't know I had a problem until I recently built a WHS2011 server and put Stablebit Scanner on it.
I have 5 WD Green drives with counts over 1 million and 1 drive over 2 million.Īlso, I have 5 Seagate drives with counts well over 1 million. I don't know how important the LCC count is. It works, although I couldn't get Win32 to boot on my computer, so I used RUFUS to create the bootable USB drive and just copied HDAT2 onto it. Seagate DOES have a tool Tools are available that work something similar to WDIDLE3. I know this topic is a little bit old, but there is some misinformation above. Thanks in advance for any advice you can give! The load cycle count is the only one throwing errors or causing concern with Scanner. Would I be able to RMA this with seagate even though Seatools checks out okay when I scan it with that? Should I be worried? All other SMART parameters seem just fine. I ran a full sector scan and everything came back perfect. I thought I had my bases covered.ģ) But even if it were parking the head routinely, it shouldn't be able to accumulate 1,400+ in just three days, right? I don't think the drive is actually parking that often, but what I'm wondering is twofold threefold:ġ) How can I tell for sure? Is it possible that the SMART data is reporting incorrectly? Is that a likely scenario?Ģ) Is there a setting I could have missed for sleep or something? When I set up my pool, I told windows power settings not to ever put the disks to sleep, and on every drive I add, I make sure to tell it not to put the drive to sleep in the Firmware. Three days later, that number has jumped by 1,400 and is growing steadily and quickly. The other day, Stablebit Scanner throws me a warning, saying I've now exceeded 300,000 "load cycles". Additionally, I have windows set to never sleep the hard drives as well in the advanced power settings.
When I bought it, I immediately added it to my pool and set it to never sleep in SeaTools. Hi Folks, I have a Seagate Backup Plus 5TB external drive I picked up on Black Friday 2014, so it's only about 8 months old.
