Two Hard Drives Needed?

Hi Guys

Just wondering what the size of those disks are? Chances are they may get quite hot in there and I can't make out if you have a fan keeping them cool.

I have three disks in my machine, a 20gig for windows and two 120Gig drives in a RAID 0 configuration. These disks need serious active cooling but luckily my case has room for a fan just in front of the disks and keeps them below 30 degrees.

Without the fan they get really hot, almost hot enough to make you pull your hand away.

Just my experience. Worth looking at cooling.
