  • Putting drives to sleep reduces their lifespan? I thought it was some calculus involved where if they were offline for long enough to offset the cost of the spinup during a time period it was fine. Either way I have an unraid server with 6 disks being put to sleep after 4 hours inactivity and been running that for years. Have had to replace 2 pre owned drives and 1 new WD red that was under warranty in several years.










  • It’s not for that though, more like the notification light on old phones so if you’re just next to your phone for a while you can set different patterns for different notifications or people to pay attention to. then can set a persistent light up top for priority notifications so if you’re working or at the beach or something can just glance and see you have ‘priority’ information waiting and dont have to be staring at your phone
