Hey guys,

Hoping to get some help troubleshooting an issue. Running OSX 10.10.5, Hardware info in profile ←

I run my system files on SSD and have a HDD for data. When I open some apps (eg Adobe Photoshop / Illustrator) while the HDD is asleep, I hear the HDD spin up, but then the app will crash.

If I turn off "sleep hard drives" the apps don't crash.

Makes me think there's something going on at a hardware / bios level- maybe with my motherboard (Gigabyte GA-Z97MX-Gaming 5)…

But I just don't know what to do. Any suggestions for how to troubleshoot this issue?
