Hi,
I am thinking about buying three or four USB hard drives as backup devices for a file server (I will rotate them like tapes). The server is running 24x7. I am concerned that a regular USB drive will burn out and fail if it is running non-stop. The backups will be scheduled at one or two times a day. After the backups, the drives could spin down, go into hibernation or do something to save power.
I cannot seem to find a USB drive that does this. Please identify USB drives, preferably from known companies, that offer this power saving feature.
Thanks
