How does OMV handle hard-drive spin down?
What hard drives are you using? Some don't like the hdparm function which is what I believe OMV/Debian use to govern hd spindown. If you're on Seagate Exos drives, for example, those drives don't work with hdparm. I had to use hd-idle for mine: https://github.com/adelolmo/hd-idle

is 15 min HDD spin down okay for Jellyfin?
If on Linux, check out hd-idle. I use it currently for also a 15min spin down (will rethink this when setting up a new server soon), but it can also be used to disable it entirely

Spin-down hdd
I tried to use hdparm once and I believe it killed 1 of my drives. Then I tried this: https://github.com/adelolmo/hd-idle It spins my hdds down property without jacking the load cycle count up. I managed to cut the power consumption of my NAS from 30w to just 14w by spinning the backup drive down.

Minimize access to media folder to enable disk standby
I have the sonarr/radarr metadata/config on an SSD while the media files stay on rotating disks. I want the disks to be on standby for as long as possible. I am using the hd-idle software on linux to put disks to sleep.
