Re: Do you turn your computer off at night?
 
I've heard many times that leaving them on is better on the hardware. I leave mine on mainly so that all the updates and virus scans run unattended early in the morning when I'm asleep. I'll also soon be adding automatic backup. All that together is three or four hours that's better off running when I'm not trying to run something else.

I leave them on. I do this so I can run scans/updates when I'm not at the PC, also - so I can remotely access the system when I'm not home. Also, because I'm really lazy and I don't really care about like 50 cents a month.

Haven't turned my systems off in months.

So much you can do when sleeping: datamine, torrents, anti-virus, defrag, etc.
