I dont have raptors but an 80mm fan with 30+ CFM blwoing over any hard-drive should be fine

Be careful with the cheap add on coolers that bolt on the bottom, especially combined with many of the newer lightweight aluminum cases. The fans bolted to the botton actually cause enough vibratrion to cause the heads to touch the platters at times and slowly kill a drive.

yea, a simple fan blowing across at any cfm will for sure keep them cool. you shouldnt have a problem there.
