Hard drive cooling fan -- any suggestions?

[PicknGrin]

Can anyone please recommend a decent cooling fan for my new 120GB 7200 RPM hard drive? I never had a HDD cooling fan before..
brands/types?

Thanks!

If it's a WD 120GB drive then it doesn't really need to have a cooler as long as your case has adequate airflow..
However adding a fan will add a few more hours to it's life and stability...

I suggest this one as it's cheap and fairly quiet I owned the older plastic version and it served me well.. this newer one looks that much nicer..

Great, thanks!

Anyone know of reports about HDD coolers causing HDD problems because of the vibrations? Someone mentioned this to me that several people had suggested this (on storagereview?).

two of my drives have hdd coolers, but i am running them at 7v. noise is very minimal, so far so good.
