[QUOTE="Airborneforest, post: 536817, member: 41538"] This is 'true-ish' with all computers. Hard drives are designed to be running all the time. However, computers do need to be shut down and restarted on occasion to reset/drain the memory and clear it from any errors. Depending on how much you use your computer. Typically I would do a shut down ever month for just a couple of minutes. I know some computers do have trouble with the sleep process though. Does the iMac just have a monitor sleep function or is it a CPU/hardrrive/monitor sleep? [/QUOTE]
