Is turning off your computer any worse for longterm computer health than hibernation?
Most importantly, according to advocates of the leave-it-on theory, starting up a cold computer puts extra stress on the read/write heads inside the hard drive. This advice may have been very useful with older drives, but newer hard drives use safer processes for spinning up the hard drive after a break. Some PC users also worry that the stress of heating up components and then letting them cool down again can cause premature failure. It's true that some PC parts expand as they warm and then contract as they cool; repeating this cycle several times throughout the day may very well cause more wear than leaving a computer on all the time.
