after
hdparm -S 1
The drive is making a lot less sound.
I will monitor it. Also have to see if this is permanent or I have to
put it in a startup cron task.
Thanks

I just built a CentOS7 system on a Zotac NANO PC.
I used a 320GB 2.5" HD I had sitting around and installed with
Standard
Partitions on XFS.
The drive is spinning, nonstop.
I would check the NANO to see if its firmware has any settings or
updates which cover this. Then check if the drive has firmware updates
needed. Motherboard and drive firmware fixes have been the things I
have found to fix most of the problems for drive 'not powering down'
problems. I think the last one I remember on IRC was a drive set came
up in a mode saying 'I am in fast access mode' or something and so the
motherboard kept it spinning up all the time to make sure it could
write quickly.
Maybe
$ hdparm -S
helps? Take a look into
$ man hdparm
It looks like -S 1
sets standby at 5 sec idle. I kind of doubt this will matter, but I
am trying it.
