    I have been running my 7k320's in raid 0 and under full harddrive use, for hours on repeated loop of antivirus, my raid array peaked at 108F.
    Not bad. The older 7k200's would peak at 118F.

    They are running so cool, because I supercharged the cooling system in my laptop. My harddrives came stock with a ~3.78cfm ARX Cera Dynafan. I upgraded that little sucker with a high performance EBM PAPST 605F which pushes 17.1cfm.
    It is great, my harddrive idle at 88F
    Nothing like a PAPST German engineered and manufactured fan

    im a hitachi fan too, hitachi is the notebook hd leader.
    im still using hitachi 100gb 7200rpm 16mb cache from last year,
    i think hitachi its the first co to come up with 16mb cache on 7200 rpm.
