HOWTO: Disable WD IDLE3 via ReadyNAS

Thanks for this tip. I just tried this remotely on my DuoV2 and it seems to work great. I have 2 WD30EZRX in there and they were factory set to 80 (8 seconds). After almost a month set at 80 they are both over 54,000 on LCC. I set them both to 250 (25 seconds ¿or maybe 61 minutes?) and will see how it goes over the next few days. I scheduled the power timer to shut it off for an hour to see if that will let the new setting take effect. If not I'll power cycle it when I get home.

EDIT: If what I read is correct, this will hopefully also make the drives less noisy since they won't be parking the heads so much.

UPDATE: This seems to of fixed my LCC issue. In 4 days my LCC count has increased by only 3 on both disks. The disks are quieter since the heads aren't parking all the time. Also remotely setting the power timer settings to power off the nas for just an hour let the new idle3 setting take effect, so this could be done completely remotely.
