Was reading the following article on how to reduce power in your home
office and came across this quote:

The Rocky Mountain Institute's Lovins suggests even more aggressive
settings. Since your
Regardless of how many times a HD is designed to spin down, it certainly
does not increase it's longevity and reliability to spin down more often.
It's somewhat similar to the suggestion to turn off you car engine every
time you come to a red light.
It may (or may not) save fuel, but it won't do
I think you're right - I think common sense suggests that turning
something on and off more often shortens its life. The problem with
the idea that it's designed for an enormous number of power cycles
is that every drive has it's own individual number that it's going to
die at, and that
Well I'll bet the 6x250GB RAID 5 array I have running here 24x7 is
probably sucking down significant juice. But then again my 19 CRT is
probably the worst culprit. I just am very adverse to motion blur and
don't like LCDs, although I will admit I haven't tried any in the last
year or two.

I've always been told that a light takes less power to keep it on all of the
time than it does to turn it on off. It supposedly takes
alot more electricity to start up a light than just to leave it on. So I would
think the same applies to just about any other
electrical device, including
As a EE major, I doubt that is the case. However, for an incandescent
bulb the tremendous change in filament temperature between off and on
would cause earlier failure of the filament when cycled more often.

I saw an episode of mythbusters where they tested this, and they came
to the conclusion that it's definitely better to turn lightbulbs on
when you leave the room.
For the average lightbulbs they tested, slightly more energy was

Here's another thing, if you set the drive to power down after two
minutes of inactivity, it's going to spin up every time you get an
email, load a webpage, or save a document. I'll betting you access
your drive at least once every two-three minutes, so

I assume you mean off when you leave a room?
Energy usage to power on seems obviously small vs.
leaving the light on all the
time. On the other hand, the light bulb will fail
sooner if being power cycled
vs. running constantly. This stress could be solved if

Woops, I did indeed mean turn off -- my mistake.
I've heard the same thing about cell phone chargers etc (and TVs,
computers, game console, etc--anything with instant on or that
doesn't power off completely in its off state) though I enjoy the
term wall warts :)
