High Temps of Hardisk

Hello guys, after solving my CPU temps problem. Now I'm facing Hardisk temp problem. I face this problem only in four months of summer (i.e. May - August, especially June and July). After more than one hour of gaming, Hardisk temperature was 48C, so I quit the game or mostly turned off my PC.
Is there any solution for that as there are no Coolers for hardisk?

Hey there, ak195.

You could either get a different case with better airflow, or more powerful fans, or both. Basically 48C is not that bad having in mind that modern HDDs' operating temperature is considered OK if it it's up to 60C. Of course it's not a really good sign if it's constantly near 60C, however if your drive runs at 48C while you are gaming, I'd say that you are safe. On the other hand, I can't be 100% sure about the operating temperature for your drive specifically so I'd suggest that you check the specs for that model.

Hope that helps.
