Do I need Koolance HD coolers?

Hi, Just finally putting my Koolance case back together and I am wondering if this hard drive cooler is worth the cost. (here is a pic. of the unit in action pic. I am going to be running 2 80 gig 7200rpm 2mb seagate baracuda's. The only cooling the case has is through fans on the top of the case and through my power supply (Enermax wisper light 2 fan version.) Do you think these drive will need extra cooling or will they be fine with the small amount of air flow going through the case?


Thanks for any help!
 
If the bay that the HDs are in has vents to the outside so it can breath than your HDs should be ok. Hard drive cooling is always a good idea as data can be impossible to replace. If there is anyway you can rig up a fan to blow across the HDs that would be just as good.
