@softraid-support Thanks for that, but I don't really have enough room on the primary disk, sadly.

@softraid-support Since my editing time passed, - I tried to install Ventura on an external SSD and it won't let me. So... I guess that option is out.

@softraid-support I still think we're not saying the same thing. Downloading Ventura now to test for myself, - at least then be able to hopefully prov...

@softraid-support I think we're asking/answering two different questions. This user disabled sleep-related features. I want them on. My Mac never slee...

Going back a moment, can I just confirm you mean that with MacOS Ventura, with the system set to NEVER SLEEP, the drives are still sleeping and waking...

@softraid-support Seconded!

@softraid-support It's so bad! And it's outrageous that these drives are getting so many cycles for no reason! Is there anything we can do to get Appl...

Anyone else had any luck with macOS Monterey preventing drives from spinning up and down several hundred times a day? I'm sure I'm on the verge of los...

@softraid-support I know my drives are going to live waaaaay less than they otherwise would with this spinning up and down 10 trillion times a ...

@softraid-support Thank you for keeping on it. I only speak for myself - but I appreciate it. Would love nothing more than this to be sorted out...
