Have gone through 3 of those within the last few months and they're all quite shit, ASUS is just as bad but I haven't had any luck out of 5 monitors. (2 ASUS)

As I said, my issue includes power management and even manually spinning them down.

Hi there, When I have an internal harddrive connected to my pc through sata and power from the power supply my harddrives never ever spin down no matter what. That includes the power management I've set and using HDDScan to manually do so, they just spin right back up instsntly. I do not have any reads or writes going through them, no handles or dll files accessing them or any programs on the drives running. I can connect them to an external bay that connects through USB 3.0 and then suddenly they do spin down with both methods. I'm not sure what I can do to allow them to spin down when they need to. Any advice is appreciated. The motherboard I am using is the Asus Z270F. Thanks
