I can't seem to find a search option on here so not sure if it has been suggested or not but scheduled power on / off would be an amazing feature for me. Power where I live is expensive and I don't need my NAS on all day every day. Would love the option to schedule power on and power off at different times for different days if that's possible.

I know some systems have this ability in their BIOS but my BIOS doesn't seem to have the option.

Scheduled power on would be difficult, as that's typically a bios function, but scheduled power off should be trivial.

That said, might be possible to utilize a sleep like mode

Hope so as well! My Synology Diskstation supported this feature and you could setup a shutdown for a specific schedule. For a turn on i used WakeOnLan and a short wol.exe link for whatever day i needed the NAS. I believe it did save Hard Drive runtime and lots of energy.
