  • Anybody use Hitachi Deskstar HDs?

    I just loaded a new one into an external enclosure and kicked off the format process. It's at 33% and the enclosure isn't quite hot enough to toast marshmellows but it's getting there (and way past what I'm used to with other drives). Normal?

      Just used two Hitachi SATA's in a system I built. Didn't notice them getting too hot but really didn't check. They seem to be working well.

        And beer Tim, don't forget the beer! A couple of ice-cold beers on top of the aluminum enclosure would dissipate the heat faster. Beer, it's not just for breakfast anymore!
