Do I need to get a Harddrive Cooler? My current setup is that I have 3 harddrive. 1 Samsung IDE for storage and bootup. 1 Seagate Cheeta (Ultra SCSI 1,000RPM) for Windows stuff and 1 Western Digital (Ultra SCSI) for my games drive. Anyways, my case is a Fong Kai 604. I'm using an intake fan in the front and a exhaust fan in the rear. The case temperture really never goes over 90F (It's winter time) and the none of the harddrive are hot to the touch. They are warm, but I can put my hand on them for as long as I want without any pain. The Segate drive does have a small old 486 CPU fan blowing under the drive. Thanks for any help...
 
Why wouldn't you use the Cheetah for booting/windows stuff, the WD for games, and the Samsung for everything else?
Your system would be much faster.
If it's not too hot to touch, it's fine.
The temerature is very reasonable as well.
You're fine 🙂
