For example, a PB on 24 hrs uses about as much power as a desktop in 45 minutes.
Both in cost and pollution terms its a huge difference.
I really don't think there are any hardware issues **as long as you dont let your machine overheat *** by running it flat out on a towel or thick carpet as someone mentioned.
The disks are IMHO just as reliable as their bigger relatives, in fact there's an argument that as they are smaller and use less power, they are under less strain physically and electronically.
