Wow.. thats almost hotter than my 10k fiber channel drives outside of the case!

I've never owned any hitachi drives other than laptop (ibm/hitachi deskstar) models, but it's within their operating range. Still seems kinda hot for a drive (and 2mb cache one too right?) that touts low power consumption

The ambient? hum...25ºC (77ºF)

Here is a Pict of the SMART on Everest Home Edition, everithing seems to be okey, but Im surprised, cause some values are over the "umbral" but any way are "Ok"...
what do you think?
