Re: disk drive cooling

[Ho Yin Ng <yahoogroups@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Well I have a gadget that sits in my free 5.25 bay with a digital display
that displays the temperature of all my equipment.

It has thermometers that you stick on your internal parts and it displays
the temps.

It also controls all the fans and gives read outs on their RPM etc etc ..
you can also set it to turn on certain fans when it goes above a certain
temp and also to emit an alarm if need be.

If you need your computer to run cooler add more fans!!!

Or a water cooling system!!! hee hee ..
