I'm experiencing a delay accessing files after the nas has been idle. I'm guessing this is due to the disks spinning down. Is there a way to disable spin down guard if that is the issue?

Indeed spinning up the disks take some time.
Currently there is no option in the webinterface to disable the spin down daemon, you could try to increase inactivity period from 5 min inactivity to the max of 30 minutes if you access the nas frequently

If you want to disable the spin down guard you could connect via ssh and kill the the damen

Code: Select all

killall -9 noflushd

To see if it is killed you can run the command

Code: Select all

ps -ef | grep noflushd

before and after running the killall command

Note that you have to repeat this if you reboot the nas as the daemon is automatically startedat boot.
You could add a cron job using the webinterface to kill the daemon directly after booting (read the help page of the webinterface)
