hi im temporarily using a laptop while im trying to setup a decent desktop and to do some stuff i use a usb to hdd adapter to get access to my old hdd.
today WOW what a surprise i had when i touched the hdd it was so hot that i almost could not stay my hand on it, i m surprised it has not melt into a breakdown! to resolve this i though of use 2 120 mmm noctua fan from my old pc to direct a bit of air on it even if it is not in a case.
I do have a 4 pin to noctua plug but what are the other options ?
for a temporary solution i plugged an old power supply in my multi plug , plugged 2 fan and press power but nothing happens? is this normal since 2 fan are the only stuff plugged in? how to tell it to start working?
