Heat in Shuttle Case

    Hey,

    I installed speedfan yesterday and I was getting one temperature of 52 and the others in the high 40s. I changed whatever setting necessary to allow the fans to be software controlled and left the fan at 100%, now my highest temperature is 44, I've just been web browsing for the 30 mins since I did that.

    What I'm really worried about is my hard drives. They seem to run pretty hot anyway. They are 200gb seagates. I have 2 inside and I have another which the last time I used it was just sitting on top of the CD drive (case open) and was very hot to touch after I shutdown.

    Can anyone tell me what the temperatures in speedfan are for.
    Temp1 35
    Temp2 41
    Temp3 37
    Temp1 44
    (there are 2 temp1s!)

    Should I sacrafice a little noise until I can afford to replace the fan. I don't know enough about temperatures to know myself. The Seagate website says the operating temperature is 5 to 55.

    Any advice appreciated.


    edit: I forgot the important things.
