Why does my ReadyNAS 102 turn on every few weeks?
Been trying to sort this for ages. Basically my NAS is being used for long term storage of my mater photos. Therefore I leave it turned off except when I do aome additions after my anual trip. But...

the only alternatives are install an UPS so the NAS doesn't see the power interruption, schedule timed power downs every day (not a complete solution, but somewhat one), or live with it.
A power strip with a switch might also be an alternative (leaving the switch off when the NAS is powered down).

A simple, elegent solution if all power-on's are via the power button. I use scheduled power ons and WoL since the NAS are in a storage room, so didn't think of such a basic answer.
