It is my understanding that the disc only turns when there is something
to write to or from the buffer. If you listen real close when you are
recording, you can hear the disc start and stop. If it is in standy by,
the unit jus tsort of sits there waiting to record something and the
mechanical parts shut down to conserve energy.
