Tom AZ Posted September 13, 2009 Share Posted September 13, 2009 Is it fairly typical for the temperature of an external hard drive to run on the hot side? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenn Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Yes, especially the cheaper ones that have sealed enclosures that depend on the aluminum housing conducting the heat away. I've seen some with convection ventilation, i.e., grills on each end, but most are passive; only a few have fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
