150gb Raptor & 320gb Seagate 7200.10 temps for summer

[LOUISSSSS]

so its getting warm here in NYc and my HDD temps just went up about 5c in proportion to the room temps

they are not hovering at around 40-41C, i'm guessing thats fine, right?

Room temperatures are called ambient temperatures. my raptor is at 82*f with an ambient temp of 77*f & 31% humidity

my seagate ST3500630NS is @ 91*f

EDIT: maybe try leaving the side cover off your case, that'll lower temps all around

i'd rather not leave my side panel off..

what are your temps in Celsius? That is the universal way to mention temps in regards to PC parts.
and what seagate drive is that?

those drives are fine up to 55C (says 60C in manual) and there is no true hard-binding evidence that lowering the temp much saves it that i have seen.
