Leaving a server on all day

I have my desktop configured to run as a server and app server for a thin
client laptop.  Will running it all day without suspend mode use a lot of
power?

Is it true that the heat buildup in a home system (rather than a heavily
fanned commercial system) will kill the drives faster and this is a good
reason to turn it off during the day when I am not home?
