I really often asked this question. They say, and nothing serious is that we often turn off, or let it be included?
And my answer is this: if you leave your computer for a few minutes, or even hours, it is best to put it in sleep mode, or he will fall asleep after a while. With regard to off for the night, then you need to switch off, I think it useless buzz all night to you by the ear. and even more so, try to work on the computer a day or two without having to reboot, but it will also be so hard blunt that it would be difficult to have to do something, it is to know yourself.
Speaking separately about laptops, the situation is slightly different. If an ordinary desktop computer is in the room where you relax, then perhaps it would be difficult not to turn it off at night because, compared with laptops they make more noise, and the rest you probably will not succeed. By myself I know when the computer is switched off, it becomes much easier.
The notebook can also leave for the night, he falls asleep himself quietly and wait for when you wake him. But do not leave your computer on battery power, connect it to the network. Of course, this is not much abuse, which would then not go shopping or look for parts for laptops sony, and that anything can happen
.
But the on / off is not necessary to abuse. All the equipment, not just a computer, do not like to be turned on or off, usually occur when turned on and all damage. So the computer is better to work an extra hour safely than start anew.
Well, of course, keep your computer turned on for weeks, it is also not necessary, this is not the server that run for months.
And most importantly, if you have shut down your computer, do it correctly and not by pulling the plug out of the socket, and then your computer will work long and stably. Good luck!
