USB HDD no shutdown

1st Official Post

    I have a problem with my USB HDDs. They just do not shut down, when my HTPC shuts down. Can anyone here help me with that? Is there an option in Libreelec, that I missed?
    THE HTPC runs on a AT3IONT-I Deluxe Board and the recent stable Libreelec build is installed.

    Thank you!

    If those USB HDDs don't have their own power supply and they are powered over USB, I would either take a look at the bios to see, if there are some options for USB (probably something like "Wake On USB" which needs to 'listen' to the USB port and for this it needs power) or would take a look what the shutdown option is set to. Probably it is set to some sleep-state where USB still has power.

    If those USB HDDs have their own power supply, I would say it's normal behaviour.
