I suggest the JustCooler/BayCooler (or similar) drive bay fans that someone
else recommended. I had a situation where two 5400 rpm HP drives were
overheating, and causing SCSI bus resets (ouch!), so I had to find a
solution. I don't have room for yet another box, so an external case was
out of the picture. (Plus, what did I buy this big tower for if not to
fill with disk drives?) I also have a Seagate Barracuda (is this a 7200
rpm?) that can get kind of warm, but two BayCooler drive bay fans (four
1.25" fans total) did the trick for all three drives.
Where did someone find these drive fans for $10?? I paid $20.
