So I noticed my case has been getting pretty warm, my Seagate 120GB ATA133 HDD has been going up to 54C.
My case is a cheap ATX one and has only 3 places where a fan can be mounted. There are two on the back and one on top, but that one's virtually useless as there's not a single hole on the top of the case. The side panels have many small venting holes.
Right now I have only one 80mm fan on the back blowing air in, just over the cpu fan.
How many fans and where should I position them for best air flow and lowest temperatures for this case? I know it's best to have a fan on the lower front panel to suck air in, but I can't put a fan there on my case.
