Hi all

I'm really hoping someone can help. When putting my iMac into sleep mode, it takes the best part of a minute to actually do it. This all seems to have happened since I added a Seagate external GoFlex drive.
That appears to be backed up by what I see when I type "pmset -g log" in the terminal window.

I get a lot of this type of entry :

I don't havea aprinter, and I haven't enabled time machine. I can only find posts on the web relating to those, so am stuck as to what to try next.

Cananyone possibly help ?

Thanks in advance

Steve
