Do you value silence from your PC? Do you dislike noisy hard drives? If so, Scythe can help alleviate the problem with the Quiet Drive.

Had a quick read through this excellent reviewage from the PV.
I`m very supprized it doesn`t get hotter, and getting hotter bothers me with drives.
Bothers me further the manufs temp specs now being 0-60 when it used to be 75.
For a 1 or 2 drive install, in a nice spacial case, u`d get away with it I`m sure.
I`ve got about a dozen drives thrashing away, with 120mm fans behind them, and they boast 40-something degrees. Take the fans away and they get stoopid hot.

Yes I was surprised that the drive didn't get hotter too, but the Quiet Drive does do the job well of removing the heat away from the drive. As I said in the review both SpeedFan (latest non-beta version) and S.M.A.R.T reported identical temps during testing.
