Then back up any important data as soon as you can, I had a SATA drive fail after 4 months and when I was trying to diagnose the issues with it I noticed it was running much hotter than the other drive.Loyaldragon

Have you fixed your problem? When mine is idle it hovers around 40 to 42 degrees C. I have a Samsung HD080HJ 80 Gig and am trying to figure out how to keep my cooler also.jinnobcity

I just ran HD Tune and it says I'm running anywhere from 47 degrees C to 56 degrees C. According to HD Tune any hard drive running over 55 degrees C is running at a critical temp. HD Tune did not find any disk errors and in all other tests it came in fine.Does anyone know what the standard operating temp is for a hard drive? Or, where I might be able to find this info?I bought this system in Sept. 2004 and it still runs great. I'd hate to have to go through the mess of putting in a new hard drive. Also, I have an extended warranty from Dell that goes for another year or so.Any suggestions?XPS 8400160 GB Seagate ST3160023AS
