Hi there,
I run Kodi 6.0.3 on a RPi2.
I have a 2.5" 2T HDD directly connected on the USB with a very good PSU.
Every time I shut-down/reboot Kodi/RPi, I can hear a "not so good" sound from the HDD; kind of hissing followed by click.
When I first unmount the HDD, there is not sound (HDD seams to still spin) and I shut-down/reboot, no sound happen.
After reading, this sound looks to be an HDD emergency stop. I am a bit afraid to loose the HDD and data.
So, is there a way for a user/I to add a delay between the unmount and the USB power off in the shut-down process?
If not, is it possible to get a special built with a ~500ms delay for a try?
Thanks
PS: Please don't ask why I shut-down RPi ;-)
