[FIXED] Hard Drive doesn't go to sleep

Heyho!

 

Simple problem, probably hard solution.

 

My HDD doesn't go to sleep anymore.

I have a 480Gb M.2 SSD, a 240Gb SSD and a 3TB HDD.

 

On the HDD there are only Media Files, such as Music and Games.

Most Games I frequently Play I have on either one of the SSD's.

 

I did add the M.2 SSD just yesterday and Did a fresh Windows install. Before that the HDD shut down fine, even If I was playing a game on it, e.g. Space engineers, and when It needed a file the game froze while it startet up and all was well and good.

 

But now it doesnt sleep at all. I already changed windows energy settings to shut the drive off after 1 minute idle.

I cant see any activity at all in task manager and I also got a 3rd Party program called "revosleep".

With that I can shut the drive off, but before it even spins completely down it starts up by itself again...

 

Any ideas? Its the loudest part in my System right now and It really buggs me out.

 

[EDIT][FIXED]

By doing the unthinkable and leaving the PC on while eating Dinner the problem I was working on since mid yesterday resolved itself. Isn't technology fascinating? *sigh*
