My HDD is dying... - Coin - 06-08-2012
itunes uses something called bonjour - a packet service. if you have any i-tunes listable files on your hd, then bonjour spins up and tries to send the listing to the net whilst your computer is starting up. installing itunes is a quick way of slowing down your start-up times, and cos the hd is spinning a lot during the process, it increases the wear rate.
it took me three hd's on two separate machines before i realised that steve jobs actually hated pc's, and designed software to make them die.
