I mostly leave my PC on all day.It's presently set for the monitor to shut down after 30 minutes and the disk at 20 minutes.What is the recommended time for auto shut down of these two.

It's all a matter of personal taste. In fact, the debate still continues as to whether you should leave it on or shut it down overnight or in periods of considerable inactivity. Coincidentally, a feature in an upcoming NNT Premium addresses this subject.

There are presets in various places in your control panel, depending on which OS version you are using. Try looking in display options and power settings to start. I have never seen a manufacturer recommendation, which is suggestive. But this machinery does drink a fair few volts so restricting its thirst when it isn't needed is likely good policy. At least it is kinder to the planet.
