My understanding is that the scan only takes place when new content that doesn't have the data cached is inserted. If you load it up on your machine using Sony's software (if you can, that is, Linux users are left out), or let it cache everything before you leave, then it will just work while you are away.

This is how it worked on both my 505 and 700.
