Are the drvies external drives or internal drives?I don't know of any cooling fans for external drives but there are cooling fans for internal drives. http://www.antec.com/index.php?page=cookieSet should have what you need. Aditionally, if you aren't confined to a case, you could simply rig a standard case cooling fan to blow between the drives but you'll need to leave room between the drives.

silverkirfsco 0 Report post Posted March 11, 2005 buying a case would be a very good idea especially since they are internal hardrives.that way there can be fans to circulate the hot air and you might be able to get fans to directly cool down the hardrive. it will also protect the hardrive from damage.
