    My laptop has no issues with heat however the HDD is always the hottest part... It is always between 50 and 60 C even when idle...

    everything else is always 30-40 so the HDD is always the hottest part...

    I have a hitachi 320 7200 RPM...

    Is this normal and is there something I can do to optimize the heat output?
