Anyway to sleep external HDD on Nvidia Shield?

by Put_It_All_On_Blck

Im trying to use my Shield as a plex server, but its also located in my bedroom so I dont want it spinning 24/7. Ideally id want it to spin down and stay off after no activity, but id settle for scheduling it, or a lot of things. However even if I do manage to get it to sleep, something always wakes it (nobody is using the plex server either).

Any suggestions?

Some external drives from the likes of Western Digital and Seagate have sleep timer you can program.
