Therealjmc Posted July 7, 2023 Share Posted July 7, 2023 Hi, since it seems Windows Server 2019 onwards can't put disks to standby but the Scanner gui can - would it be possible to call the binary via CLI with parameters to specify disks and put them to sleep? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Christopher (Drashna) Posted July 18, 2023 Share Posted July 18, 2023 Potentially? But before doing so, have you enable the throttling for SMART queries in StableBit Scanner? This may help. Also, do you have DrivePool installed on the system? If so, disabling the bitlocker detection in the advanced settings can help, too.

0 Therealjmc Posted July 19, 2023 Author Share Posted July 19, 2023 Hi, yes I have enabled the throtteling and enabled the checkbox to not querry if the disc has spun down. I do have DrivePool installed - however my source disks for the bool ARE bitlocker encrypted. Will disabling this get me into any trouble? Thanks!

0 Christopher (Drashna) Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 If you're using automatic unlocking (weth the system disk encrypted too), then you shouldn't. Otherwise, you may run into issues, yeah. (restarting the service after unlocking the drives may work, though). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
