I have 3 external 1GB sata drives have them through Esata ports and a sata port, I ahve a simple power switch on the power line to them, is it a BAD thing to shut them off when they are all in standby mode?

Copyright infringement is nothing more than civil disobedience to a bad set of laws. Lets renegotiate them.
