I have moved 2 Seagate 7200.8 200GB to lower HDD and palced a 92mm Panaflo as intake fan in front of the HDD..not where the large 120x 38mm fan was...I used nylon ties to secure the fan

it seems my HDD are still 2-3C higher but my cpu/pwmic temps dropped 2C/5C

So my questions what is a safe max temp on the HDD...running a 1 hr on large fft load temps on the HDD were 35C

Cpu was 40..3C-4C
PWMIC 41/42 at load...about 5-7C lower

moving the HDD helps with airflow but no there temps are higher which may lead to HDD failure???
