i know smartd is a daemon that monitors newer hard drives and tries to
predict failures.

standby - check the device unless it is in SLEEP or STANDBY mode. In these
modes most disks are not spinning, so if you want to prevent a laptop disk
from spinning up each time that smartd polls, this is probably what you
want.

i was reading up on it here:
http://smartmontools.sourceforge.net/man/smartd.8.html

i hope it does not affect your routers...
