Backup drive won't go to standby after 4.1.6 > 4.1.7 upgrade
Hi. This is my first post on this forum.
I'm running a Duo with a Maxtor Basics external HD connected to one of the rear USB ports for daily backup purposes. Prior to upgrading from 4.1.6 to 4.1.7 the Maxtor would automatically spin down when not in use. Now it runs all the time.
Is there something I can change in an RC file somewhere to restore the spin down or must I revert to 4.1.6?
EDIT: I reverted to 4.1.6 and the drive spins down properly again.

- Bumpety-bump.
I recently went to Raidiator 4.1.8 and the problem persists. I have the feeling this is one of those issues that's easy to fix once you know exactly what setting to change in exactly which configuration file.
Any suggestions? Otherwise I guess I'll have to revert to 4.1.6 again. - Can you please send Duo's configure file to me with PM?
