    That's weird. Hot Swap bays are usually retrictive when it comes to airflow. But you're not even using them.
    That case is known for decent airflow too. Are those temps out of spec for those drives?
    Are you gonna be able to put up with the noise that those new fans make?

    Keep the thread, it's yours now.
    You'll like those Cougar fans. I have several 120mm Cougar Vortex PWM fans and they're made well, they're quiet, and they move a lot of air around.
    As soon as you open the box, you'll know what I mean.
