Have you ever enabled Power Timer?
Hello,
because I had this issue, I have setup power-up/off schedule and deactivated it after because this was a proposed workaround, but before the issue happened, I have never used this feature. This is disabled since years now.
I use the NAS as most of the time powered off, and power it on 'on demand'. I usually use WoL for that because I can do it w/o using the physical buttton, and because from time to time I need to use it when away from home.
But, I'd prefer the NAS not to power on itself regularly.
I went to my email, because I receive an email from the NAS each time it has an administrative event (f/w update available, power(-off etc...).
Unfortunately I didn't keep all the emails, but from theones I still have I can tell you that the NAS is powering on alone
