The HDD runs so cool anyway that a few degrees lower isn't going to make any difference. I am willing to sacrifice a little airflow for aesthetics, personally I think it looks better with all the trays in.

But thanks for the suggestion anyway

I used the unneeded HDD trays (2 of them) to cover the wires underneath them. I can sacrifice a little bit of airflow for the sake of aesthetic too..
