Hard Drive Cooling for 10¢ (~5p)
posted under Web Morsels 27.4.2005
Have problem with inefficient fan cooling for hard drives? No? Well read on anyway. A Slashdot article appeared earlier in the week detailing a novel method of hard drive cooling for only 10¢ per drive (about 5p).

Instead of using case fans to blow air across the drives, the author uses a standard right-angle bracket to mount a standard 80mm fan to blow air straight at the underside of the drive, apparently achieving 10°-15° drops in temperature. Tricky in tight cases, but a handy trick nonetheless.
