LaCie HD wakes up even iMac is sleeping

Hello!

Since some weeks I have a LaCie HD for backup with TimeMachine. The strange thing is that even when the iMac is asleep the HD starts up for a short moment (about once an hour I guess). I have installed TimeMachine Scheduler and scheduled no backups during the night.
Still the HD starts up. Aperently there is a process checking once and a while if the HD is still present and this wakes the HD up. Which process is this?

My question is how can I avoid this?

Thanks for any help.
