Hello everyone, over the past few weeks I've been trying to understand what's causing my hard drive to wake up unexpectedly. My main SSD is working fine, but when I power on the PC it keeps turning on and off randomly. I'm not using any apps, just trying to figure out how to stop this from happening so I can disable it. I've closed all user programs and thought maybe a Windows service is involved. I did some research online, but nothing concrete has helped yet. The only clue I found was that the drive itself is what's waking it up. Let me know if you have any suggestions!
