HDD coolers

[The_Saint]

What do you guys think about HDD Coolers? I'm thinking about going for a RAID 0 array using 2 Raptors, but since they get hot I want to make sure they'll stay cool! Any raccomendetions for HDD coolers that perform great while keeping my setup very quite?

Thanks!

how hardcore do you want to get with it? Like just a simple $10 double fan over the top? or a $40 total inclusion box?

I read some reviews on this one

And it is supposed to be decent...

well...a little hardcore but not too much. That looks cool though.

Just wanted to hear some suggestions!

I have a hd cooler, it a generic but fairly quiet, has two fans, good investment IMO but a nice CPU hs/f comes first

If you wanna go hard core look around for a water cooling solution

you'd probably do just as well to buy a new case wherein the hdd are mounted in rear of the front case fan! The Antec P160 is one such case. http://www.overclock.co.uk/customer/...=17155&cat=248

my Antec case has a 120mm fan in front of the hard drives which works very well.

I've had a Vantec cooler with the 2 fans and it died out fairly quick, lasted only like 8 months
