Hdd Heat
« on: October 03, 2003, 08:38:00 PM »

Yes I did A search before posting this but i only saw temps for celceus or however you spell it I want to know the safe operation temps for a maxtor 80gb hdd. I was thinking about getting one of those fans that attach to the side of the xbox. Are they good or bad? Anyway my M/B runs at usually 110-120F and my Hdd 130-140F. So are those way too hot or just normal? Should I get a fan? Please tell me! :(
