Turning Off 5100 vs Leaving it On

I am wondering what is typically harder on the hard drive inside of the 5100: turning it off and on with regular use or just letting it run all the time. Seems like there's a lot of wear-and-tear on the drive if it keeps getting turned off and on over time. Anyone have any thoughts on this?

Regards,
Dan

My 5100 is pretty quiet

Quite a few people complained about the whining noise of 5100, but the one that I bought this X'mas is working fine quietly. Just want to let others know. (not all 5100's are noisy)

I love my 5100 and can't go back to watching TV without PVRs anymore. :eek:
