Unless restarting counts as shutting it off in which case I probably average about a month between restarts. Only hardware problem I have had hard drive failure and it was a Raptor after three years of being on 24/7. Raptors are known to have a pretty high failure rate so nothing surprising there. | ||

Modern hard drives are made to be able to run 24/7. A cold boot is much harder on the drive than leaving it on, but I imagine the difference in shutdown + startup vs leaving it on for the extra 8 hrs is negligible. Also fan blades can't collect much dust if they're always spinning, :p but I imagine it does shorten their lives. I've never had a fan die, but I tend to buy high quality ones and usually undervolt them. | ||
