Product: Hp24f0800no

Hi

I just bought the all-in-one computer Hp24f0800no and the problem is that when I turn off the computer the external hard drives still runs which is a little disturbing since the computer is in the bedroom.

Is there some settings I can do?

I had an MSI AE2050 all-in-one and I had no problem with the drives, they turned off when I turned the computer off, so whatś so special with HP?

Greetings,

Welcome to the forum.

I am not a HP employee.

 

Do you mean an activity LED on the external HDD is on?

 

The system is still energized when it is off. Try a different USB port.

 

Some newer PCs have USB charging ports. I don't know if this is your situation.

 

Regards
