Hi,
I have a Western Digital Pi Drive which I have connected to OSMC and all working well, my concern is OSMC seems to keep the drive working all of the time, will this damage the drive?
The Pi Drive has an led on that flashes when the drive is idle and stays lit when the drive is being accessed, when I had it connected to Plex it was idle unless I was watching something but with OSMC the led is always lit so being accessed, even when I'm not watching anything.
I asked on the OSMC forum and they don't offer a working disk idle and probably won't, so will this harm the drive and should I look at another method to watch my media?
Thanks
