Why does my 4tb Seagate Expansion go to sleep when idol? On WIN7 it'll just rest and the LED stays on. On WIN10 however, it just switches off altogether. Do I want that feature switched off? If yes, how do I turn it off?
 
You may want to check advanced power option, there is a setting to manage whether USB device to stay powered or not when PC goes to sleep.
