 please don't set your hdds to a spindown timeout of 1 minute! this WILL damage
 your hdds. anything above 15 or better 20 minutes should be ok. keep in mind
 that the spindown value is measured in seconds!
 
 sorry i cannot help you with the other issue. have you encountered it again?
 
 cheers.
 alex
