External HD, leave it on or off?
This is mostly about my external harddrive, but also my less used DVD-RW... Both are external drives. The harddrive is used for storage. I might use it for a little while(play MP3s) then leave it for a good bit just idle. The little case has a fan, but it doesn't get much air flow. Would it be better to leave it on, or flip it on only when I need it. Sometimes I just feel like I'm just sitting there cutting it on and off and I just feel it's not good for it...
