Does my RP3 have to be shutdown regularly?

Postby Jim Creek » 11 May 2016, 00:19

Sorry if this is a dumb question but I am a newbe. Can my Raspberry Pi 3 run 24/7 or does it need to be shutdown when not in use? release version: 0.4 (build: beta-20160313)

If you ran your Pi for a year it would cost around $10. There is nothing wrong with leaving the Pi on 24/7, as it will only consume as much power as it requires and as there are no moving parts, there is nothing to wear out.
