OK, so I have my 5100 in my bedroom and it's getting older so the hard drive is getting a little bit noisy.
Problem is the F/W in the unit feel it necessary to run the hard drive about every 1/2 hour for 5 minutes or so even when the unit is off. The hard drive powers up twice an hour runs for a few minutes and then shut down again. Does not seem like a great feature to improve reliability plus it's annoying.
Unit is not recording during this time BTW.
Anyone know why this occurs and if there is any way around it?
