Is it a good idea to turn off the PVR 501 when not in use? When the PVR is on, the hard drive is constantly running to track the past hour of the program it's set on. Would this cause the hard drive to "wear out" more quickly? Maybe I just don't understand the full technology of the PVR, but it seems that it would be a good idea to let the hard drive rest when not in use.
I love the PVR 501. Some people seem to be having problems with it, but I think the quality of the picture after recording is superb as well as the sound. It's way better than I anticipated. Slow motion and blocking out the non-subscribed channels on the theme lists are my only requests so far.
