Xbox One S disc drive spins and fan kicks in when turned off

Yep. No affect.

The xbox one has updates sometimes when the console is off. Does the drive keep spinning for more than 10 minutes after you turn off the console?

Also, does the drive park when the console turns off? And it keeps spinning?

I have the same problems. Happened at least 10 times with an xbox360 S. Today for example i turned off xbox360 with a background download and the drive started to spin until i eject the tray. Happened also when i entered in xbox video with last dashboard.
Inserted i have the battlefield 3 disc. It seems to happen randomly. I think an update can solve this. If you have a very big download the drive spin until the end. If you eject the tray the console turn off again.

Attempted to turn off the option to power down drive so that it would be always on, but even then it spins down and up again every minute. So it seems no matter what setting it's on, it will not

1. keep drive powered on when in standby

or

2. keep drive powered off when in standby

So if it's doing a status check every 60 seconds, is it the drive that is spinning up on its own, or is it the XBOX OS that is spinning it up I wonder?

I have another drive which I have plugged in and tried this on, it is a Hitachi Touro 1tb (usb powered hdd) and it also spins up every 60 seconds. I plugged the hitachi into another XBOX one S and noticed it exhibited the identical behaviour... Spinning
up and down every 60 seconds.

So that's two drives on two Xbox One's. I'm very puzzled. Thoughts?

Probably it isn't the hard drive disc that is spinning fast, once the console was turned off. I think it is the fan that is trying to cool down the hardware. Did you check if the console heats a lot before turning it off? Do you have your console in a tight
space or with stuff on top of it, preventing its cooling? Is your room too heated?

Are you sure it`s not the fan?

The disc should not spin when not in use,i would say you have a faulty machine.
