What's the better hard drive cooler?

The 5.25" bay with 3 fans on the rear or the 3.25 latch-type which you place on the bottom of the drive with one fan?
 
Biggs, I'd go w/ the bay style cooler, as it introduces cool air from the outside, while the cooler that screws to the bottom of the drive simply moves around air already inside the case. Plus many of the bay style coolers have a washable filter.

I use one of those only with 2 fans instead of the one &amp; seems to work well especially as it's mounted just above the front case fan which brings cool air into the case!
