That´s good enough for me . I was worried that the temps might go up because it´s encased, and will get less airflow. I´ll look at maybe placing a , 14 db , 14cm intake fan flowing over those fins.

I don´t have one.
I was just looking into these HD cases and thought mmm
When I see something different, questions and doubts crop up as to it´s functionality/claims .
Those other HD accessories that you pointed out also look interesting ,but total silence of the drives would be nice.
