Upgrading to RN316 and Disk Spin Down Question

I do have current backups, so a restore is possible if necessary. For a long time I've tried to maintain backups of at least the most important data off site. (Of course, being in Australia that means I'm still doing sneaker net as I can't push TB of data over the Internet each month.)
