Especially, I´m interested in running Samba on the router, using external HDD.
Due to the fact, that my router (and the futute external storage) is situated in my living rooom, I´m very serious about the noise the HDD makes. Due to the fact, it is very critical for me to know the answer for the following question:
Does the wl-500gx custom FW have some functionality to set the HDD to sleep mode (stop the motor of the HDD) if the external storage is not used for e.g. 10 minutes?
Can anybody confirm this or give an alternate solution?
Thanks in advance.
