WD Elements power up state

Knight-gkla · May 15, 2017, 1:19pm

I would like my WD Elements drive to power up in off state. Is this possible? I can then only turn it on for backup.

Hello,

I dont think this is possible.

I recommend you contact support about this and get an official answer to this question.
