6.2.0 Power Timer Schedule Not Cleared During Factory Reset
Sorry, if this has already been reported but it would seem if you perform a "Factory Reset" and you had shut down and start up times set that these are not cleared and thus if you power down the NAS it will turn itself back on at the time you had set before the factory reset.
To fix I just enabled power timer option and then cleared it.
It would be interesting to see if this issue effects the spin down and wake on lan options also?

- vandermerweMasterWhile we're on the topic of retaining information in OS6, the performance information that is reset after each restart would be useful retained information for users, in my opinion.

The off times data would be available to the units software as of course it is powered up at the time.
Unrelated, perhaps in an update, could all the time fields be in a 24 hour format?
At present, some bits are 12hr with am/pm e.g. Device Time on system page linked to the Date & Time setup page.
But under System / Power all the schedules are in 24hr time format. e.g. 17:00
