Hi, I have an ASUS RT-AC1750 B1 router with recent ASUS firmware installed.
I hooked up a WD Elements 4TB external hard drive to use as a network drive, which is formatted for Apple/Mac. It is plugged into the router's USB 3.0 port.
Everything works fine except that the hard drive will not enter sleep mode unless I command it to unmount through the ASUS browser control page. Once I command it to unmount, I can't use it again until I unplug it and plug it back in. I'm not comfortable...
