Yeah, that's the setting you want to change. You can, just set the machine to never sleep while still using the Balanced power plan, which may save some electricity, and generate less heat.

You'll still be forced to do a rebuild on any improper shutdown. You should see how long three RAID6 arrays of eight 1TB drives (that's 24 TB, minus 6 TB for parity data = 18 TB of storage) takes to recheck. (It's about 16 hours.)
