Gentlemen,
How does one cool a computer in a very hot environment, specifically the hard drives?, when air conditioning is not an option.
I have an Antec Twelve Hundred V3 with 7 fans, i5, vanilla graphic card, no games, and no excessive cpu use.
The temperature, which is often in excess of 45C, or 113F, causes my hard drives, (one of which, with often relocated sectors, will soon crash), to show temperatures up to 50C, according to Hard Drive Sentinel.
As cooling usually refers to the cpu or to the graphics card, and as the whole environment inside my case needs cooling, is there a simple, and economical, solution to cooling the whole computer, mainly the hard drives, and not just parts liable to heating?
Thankyou.
