Yeah definitely.
I have my LCD tv on switchbox which I turn off when I leave.
some of those things suck more power when they're off then they do on (scary!)

Normally, yes, the computer can see the SMART status even in a RAID.
I've actually seen this a few times when a drive in a RAID started to fail.
My original recommendation stands;
If you want your stuff to last as long as possible,
turn it off and leave it off for as long as possible

Would that be unplugged too, with all the soft start items
