Check the maufacturers site for envioronmental specs for your model HDD. My
Seagate 80Gb, 7,200 RPM runs at about the same and Seagate says it should
run between 10-60°C.

It's warmer than it "could" be, but is normal, not a problem. Read
the spec sheet for your particular drive to determine max temp spec,
but I'd pretty sure it's higher than 42C.

40-42C is perfectly normal. Keep in mind, 37C is body temperature, and
there's no reason a computer should melt down at only slightly more than
body temperature.
