Hi all,
First of all thank you very much for what is already a very useful program. I've signed up to ask the question in the title because nobody seems to have a solution for what is going on. To explain:
----
Normally I can find a solution or workaround for most things by searching the web or trial and error but this has me stumped. The clues as to the culprit are these logs in Event Viewer, which always coincide with the drives spinning up:
svchost (3212,G,0) The beta feature EseDiskFlushConsistency is enabled in ESENT due to the beta site mode settings 0x800000.
svchost (2884,G,0) The beta feature EseDiskFlushConsistency is enabled in ESENT due to the beta site mode settings 0x800000.
taskhostw (5108,G,0) The beta feature EseDiskFlushConsistency is enabled in ESENT due to the beta site mode settings 0x800000.
Windows Search is disabled, Indexing disabled (all drives), Write Caching disabled (on mech drives), Superfetch disabled. Mech drives are an exception in Windows Defender as well. Even happens with the mech drives marked offline, which I find barmy.
In Power Options I have the hard drives set to turn off after 10 minutes (doesn't matter if 1 minute or 20 or anything) but the event keeps turning them on a few minutes after.
Now, the drives aren't unhealthy noisy, but they are a bit noisy. With a quiet fan profile the "hoom.... hoom" is noticeable. I wouldn't mind hearing them when I'm actually writing to or reading from them but not all the time. Aware I could also bungee them to reduce noise, and perhaps will, but I think it would be good/better to find the cause of this as I don't like the idea of the drives unnecessarily being made to work in the first place.
----
So I was wondering if Process Lassoo could identify what is going on and then help prevent it, and include this as a new feature which would help a lot of people with this issue (if you search for "EseDiskFlushConsistency" and "Win 10 waking up my drives etc").
Thank you for reading.
