Even though I have had a duff 75GXP (well, a couple of bad sectors), I'd not hesitate in ever buying IBM drives again. I've had far too many great ones in the past.Comment

Case: APEX SuperCase Full Tower
I have one intake fan at the bottom front (right under the array) and two exhaust fans at the top-rear of the case (exclusive of the fan on the PS).
You can see from this pic how the airflow would go;
The drives are in the lower 4 bays in the 6 drive 3.5" cage. The top 3.5" bay is the floppy and the one below it is empty.
Three of the 6 5.25" bays are occupied full time. One removable bay is the boot drive (swappable for betatesting), one is the DVD reader and the other is the CD burner.
Another removable bay is for archiving video projects to HDD's, at least until I get a DVD burner.
The case temp is at or below 32 C . Putting a remote temp guage on each drive in turn after a warmup doesn't show anything untowards...maybe a few degrees over the case temp.
The PIII has a Golden ORB hanging off it using Dow Corning 340 thermal grease and runs at about 37.5-38 C.
