A re you having problems with this unit taking too long to wake up.? Application like DS audio cant wake up the server.

I did have a problem with my Diskstation not waking up at one time so I just switched off the sleep function. For me, I'd much rather have the unit awake and available at all times than save a couple dollars in electricity. If you do want this feature then you might want to make sure you have "wake on LAN" enabled and also make sure that your firewall isn't blocking the incoming request to wake the diskstation up.

It may take more time to wake up depending on what drives you have in the system. If you have RAID drives, it is a little better. I have just WD Green 2TB hard drives in it, and it takes about 10-15 seconds to wake all 4 drives up. What kind of time frame are you talking about?

It takes a while, but I have no problems waking it up using DLNA (from Sharp TVs)

It's a problem with the machine. It would do that whenever mine went to sleep and started up again. I tried everything, and talked to everyone with no success. I returned it. I got the V5-552PG-x809 when it went down to $669 and it is incredible. Everything works as it should.

I've found sometimes just reboot the whole system since it checks for an active input, I know what you mean though bro! Turn everything off and then power everything on but the speakers play audio and turn it on

Same here. I think I just extended the sleep mode until 30 minutes (did it yesterday) and it appears to have corrected it.

I ended up returning it. (They were good about the return) It would take up to ten minutes to work when the computer woke up from sleep. I researched on the Web and saw that was not uncommon. I think it's an inferior product.

I had this very same problem. I returned the unit. Its a shame, it seemed like a good product.

I opened the control panel and set the computer "never" to go to sleep when plugged in -- but it still cuts out on me at odd times. Any suggestions greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Sorry I can't help... This weekend the same thing happened to the unit I bought for my Mom. Please let me know if you find an easy fix for this problem.

Know what I will have to look at mine. I simlpy haven't paid attention to that. Now I have a question for you. Do you know how to make it stop beeping all the time when there is nothing wrong? Perhaps the room temp is going outside of the perameters established. hahaha. I'll get back with you asap,Steph

I have two units. One is dead silent in the idle mode, the other has a barely detectable white noise. Try double-clicling on the Play/Stop button to change into another audio mode, such as for speech.

I unfortunately, have not used my new unit enough to notice this, but will try to find a way to communicate if I experience this issue. Sorry!!!

Did you re-start your DWS and/or your computer? I haven't had a single problem, but that doesn't mean nobody ever had one. I don't mean to insult your intelligence, but if you haven't tried this, try this: unplug your LPD8, restart your computer, plug in the LPD8, launch your music software. Good luck!

After attempting to get the LaCie system up and running I ended up with a bare bones system. The LaCie was DOA. I replaced it with a dual drive mounted in a Icy Dock which does have the ability to go into sleep mode after being unmounted and/or energy saving mode during periods of non use.

Hold down the power button and at the same time alternate between the up and down volume for 30 seconds each...give it a rest ...if nothing restarts it..retry..it takes time to restart when you get it back on it will be at factory default.

I am not sure why...but it might be the timer. I love the system though. It sounds really good and I do not have any rpoblems with it.

I have the same problem. the volume does not go down enough. Ive tried to fix it with no avail. i have even tried contacting asus and put in a complaint but they have not gotten back to me yet.

It sounds as if the unit may have a defect, or just needs to be rebooted. Please contact the vendor immediately for an RMA if necessary.
