i think the coolmax would be better if the "all aluminum frame & metal tray" means the shell is aluminum as well. and it would allow you to put in a 5.25" drive if you want. the point here is that you may be able to put in a "bay cooler" type device with your HDD, if you find the temp too warm. of course that would add to the noise.
