    Well i got a topic here talking about my dead DVDRW and my trial with optical bay ... then i discovered that is something related to my motherboard.

    So last night i was using the laptop and the plam wrist was getting hot, i decided to try something, i just fliped the HD and the heat will go to the other side i mean you cant have the side screws, but the HD case still keeping it on its place. I dunno about doing this with the DVDRW since i got a big gap and lot of space to dissipate the heat now that i dont have the DVDRW. By the way im using momentus XT on it.
