After switching to my new MacBook Pro (M2 Max, 2023 - Mac OS Ventura 13.2.1) my external Lacie hard drives keep falling asleep. Although the option Put hard disks to sleep when possible is set to Never.
It's driving me crazy!
Any way around this?
Thanks

The current stable release of Ventura including bug fixes, security updates is macOS Ventura 13.3 I would start there
Keep your Mac up to date - Apple Support

Thanks!
I will check it after the easter weekend.
For now I found a solution in the terminal command: "sudo pmset -c spindown 0"
This works until the computer goes to sleep, after wake up the problem returns until restart.
But I'm not very familiar with terminal and don't know how to undo this command or if it's healthy for the computer.
