Put Hard Disks Sleep When Possible in Ventura M1 Mac mini - option has disappeared
This option in energy saver was available on my Mac mini M1 Ventura 13.5. However I notice that if one turns it off the option disappears - you can't turn it on again. Surely this is not by design?
It is posing a real problem for me - In Adobe Lightroom when I right click Lightroom will wait for any external disks to spin up before responding. This takes several seconds and is slowing me down a lot!
My external disks are for backup only and not used by Lightroom. In order to work efficiently I have to unmount the backup disks and then of course forget to remount them for backups.
Others have also experienced the problem -> https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/put-hard-disks-to-sleep-energy-saver-settings-disappearing.2397175/
Is there any way to force this option to reappear?
