When TiVo is not in standby it buffers all 3 tuners continuously (using the HDD), it is not recommended to switch it off so often (reboot it once or twice a month). Try putting it in standby give it a minute to stop its processing and it should then be silent. Fortunately / unfortunately TiVo now connects to the network every six hours and I'm unsure if the HDD kicks into action when this is done (my thoughts are that it doesn't use the HDD to download or process this data).

I've just tested mine and it took 3 mins 25 secs to stop processing, wind down the HDD and go silent. Sleep well!
