I have a question on external hard drive temperatures, i have i believe an simple drive "Hitachi" 2 tbs and is usually running in mid 50s Celsius and at the moment running 61c today temps in my area were at 75f but it is night and room is cold outside 57f house is 68f. My other drives Samsung 400gig is at 26c and a SDD OCZ 60gig 30c so my external is ruffly running double the other drives temperatures. So my main question would be is mid 50 too high or what i am at now 61 too high for a HD. I would also like to mention that at times when starting up PC the external sometime isn't recognized and would have to plug it in for it to be noticed. My last question is would it be best to open my external drive and simply make it an internal one?
