RE: Hard Drive
Well, in that case I want to see the exact quote/source, as that does not make any sense at all in reference to power consumption and even not in reference to the dureability of the equipment.
They most likely mean it in the context as we both already have said before: constantly powering anything on/off over a short period of time isn't good for any equipment (nothing todo with power consumption in that case either).
Recommending to leave a machine on for a long period of inactivity is the worse thing you can recommend even for a manufacture (and even how low the power consumption might be in standby mode). If you don't use a machine for a long time, you switch it off.
