I have 2 HDD's in my system, 1TB and 750GB Samsung Spinpoint F1's. The 1tb is my main drive and the 750gb is my media storge drive where I keep all movies, music, and anything I want to save/archive.
When the 750gb hasn't had any files accessed for a bit, it seems to go into a sleep mode or something. When I try to access anything on it after a period of inactivity, I get a 3-5 second delay, followed by a click and then the file opens. This happens with any file on the drive. If the drive is constantly used (typically when downloading/uploading torrents to/from it), this problem doesn't manifest.
Is this something I should be concerned about or something I can fix? The rig in question is in my signature.
Thanks!
