[pchelpers] How hot is to hot

I changed my Hd on my internet server from a IDE (which was going bad)
to a SATA.

I then notice that the drive was idling at 116f and 127f
when burning a cd.

I installed a HD fan and now its running at 86f and 96f under load.

What is a normal temp for a HD?

Good advice is like good paint- it only works if applied.
