Thumbs down NEC and Hitachi roll out water-cooled hard drives

NEC and Hitachi roll out water-cooled hard drives - Engadget

i see this as totally worthless, n only good to buy for Raptors that r 10,000 rpm n 15,000 rpm in a hot everyday environment, thats it.

if any of u even consider getting this, u deserve to be punched in the gut for buying something stupid as this lol.

Useless because, hard drives last longer, when running in the warm range of 40-60C.
