could someone could please recommend a cooling solution for my 250 gig, 7200 maxtor?

i have a 5 1/4 " drive bay free so i could do a bay solution, but i'm hoping for something that's not too flashy-- no digital temperature displays...

thanks for your help...

I sorta liked the idea of this cooler from Zalman. I am still on the fence about it. I REALLY like the idea of no fans.

Does your can have an intake fan mount you aren't using? I added a silent Nexus 120mm fan to the front of my Antec SLK3700AMB server box to keep the drives cool.

Their products are built for silent pc operation. For overclocking, consider Thermaltake and such.

BTW, I love my 7000B Al-Cu. Cools pretty well and is silent even at 2500rpm.
