We recently moved, and the layout of the new apartment places my desk (with FreeBSD server on it) right next to the bedroom wall. Unfortunately the construction of said wall is such that the noise made by the hard drives carries through it rather well. We've been woken up several days in a row by the nightly maintenance that runs at 3am. Is there anything wrong with changing the time that daily/weekly/monthly maintenance runs to, say, around noon or 1pm in the afternoon? Will this be bad for the FreeBSD system in any way, shape or form? This is a very lightly used system (basically, serves as our DSL gateway, and hosts my personal website and e-mail), so we're not particularly concerned with it bogging down in the middle of the day.
