Hey all, been having a weird issue with my Wii U as of late, and I haven't been able to find much help elsewhere.
I have my Wii U set to standby mode, that being the mode where the system is able to download updates from the internet while it is turned off. However, I have noticed that, lately, my console has been booting into the standby mode (where the power light turns yellow) very frequently, and on each instance that I've checked, the download history queue shows no recent downloads.
Normally this wouldn't be an issue for me, but each time the system turns on, the disc drive starts up, along with all of the internal fans. It's not loud or anything, but it's still a noise that bothers me while I'm trying to sleep. I'm also slightly worried about power usage and the wear this may be incurring upon my system's disc drive.
If it helps, I have a Deluxe 32GB Black Wii U console from the New Super Luigi U bundle released early this year. I have a 2TB wall adaptor-powered external hard drive plugged in for additional storage, along with an ethernet adaptor.
