Actually that is a matter of contention Russ...
The only thing about powering down a pc is the fans / hard drive motors...
The startup current drawn and torque involved in starting them turning is higher than leaving them running, therefore if a hard drive is going to fail then it does so as you turn it on, the same way that a light bulb blows as you turn it on normally as opposed to blowing while it is in use.
