TC hdd timeout settings

Post by *Zygus »

Hello, is there any way to change how long TC is waiting for hdd response until it drops the alert message about drive is not accessible?
I have second hdd western digital blue with ridicule idle settings. This drive when not used for very short moment enters idle mode, and when I try to reread the folder i quite often get error and drive letter in tab is switched to C:.
Drive is completely fine, and idle mechanism is working as manufacturer intended. Seems timeout in TC is just too short for it.

You should not get any error message, TC doesn't have a timeout waiting for local disks. It should show a dialog box after 1-2 seconds that it is trying to connect, though.
