Hi,
I have a Seagate 120GB 7200rpm SATA Barracuda drive. I put an Antec
Hard Drive Cooling System on it that has a temperature sensor that is
supposed to be taped to one of the ICs/chips.
The temp reading of this sensor is usually low 40s celsius, but under
heavy use it can get up to about 51 degrees celsius.
The specs for this drive say it can operate in temp up to 60 degrees,
but I have a couple of questions:
1) I assume that the chip is one of the hottest parts, and just
because the chip gets to 50 the whole drive is probably a little
cooler. Correct?
2) Anyone else have comparable readings to mine?
Cheers
