Scheduled snappshot fails

Hi,

on a WS 2008 the scheduled snappshot to an external usb disk fails. It seems that the disk is turned off because of inactivity and when the snappshot jobs starts System Recovery (8.5) can't see the disk. I checked the energy options and the relevant parts look O.K. to me. Is there a possibility to "wake up" the disk? Or another thing I could try?

 

Thanks and regards

If the disk is being turned off due to inactivity, this is due to WS 2008 energy policy. Please review this policy again.
