r/Snapraid

I usually download in huge spurts as I download entire seasons and movies.

I'm wondering if it makes sense to do something like sudo snapraid -p 3 -o 10 daily or just do the sudo snapraid scrub weekly?

Can't access SnapRAID UI even though daemon is running

I've just installed the new SnapRAID Daemon for the first time but can't seem to access the web UI, even though the deamon seems to be running:

snapraidd -V

snapraid -V
SnapRAID CLI v14.4 by Andrea Mazzoleni, https://www.snapraid.it

I've tried both using http://localhost:7627 as well as calling the local ip directly http://192.168.2.115:7627. The CLI and daemon are running on a fresh install of Ubuntu Server 26.04.

Disk spindown timer in Daemon not working

I've just tried the new Daemon for the first time. Unfortunately, I can't seem to get the disk spindown timer to work at all.

While I can manually put all drives in my setup into standby with hdparm -y /dev/sd*, they just keep spinning after the 10 minutes set in the Snapraid Daemon UI have passed.

Does the daemon need another dependency besides hdparm for this to work?
