I bought a Seagate 320 GB, and I have never turned it off unless I was moving my computer (i.e. unplug -> move -> plug in). Just keep it well ventilated and you shouldn't have any problems with it overheating. If so, then just buy a new model.

That's the same one I was running as well. I ran my games and steam off of it and even then it wasn't hot enough to make me worry.

Some people in this thread are unreasonably paranoid.

External drives typically have much shorter lifespans than internal ones, and that Seagate you bought is one of the worst offenders. If your power supply goes, the entire HD will be useless. I have no idea why they designed it that way, but it's idiotic.
