    I'm getting a bit worried about my Hard Drives

    Anyone know what temps I should be starting to worry at? I've got a 120mm fan right at the front of the case pulling air in over them but its probably not much use if the air is hotter than the hard drives :(

    I wouldn't be too concerned with those temps. I always thought that anything above 60C is getting dangerous.

    Just goes to show Western Digital drives can have higher temps compared to others. The D and S drives are WD while the E drive is a Samsung Spinpoint and its 73% full
