NEC and Hitachi team to water-cool hard drives
 

Score one for water-cooling fanatics. NEC and Hitachi just announced a partnership focused on developing a liquid cooling system for hard drives. Let's take a look at how liquid cooling typically works, why it's attractive, and how Hitachi and NEC plan to liquid cool a hard drive.

the arrow above misses a point, just like this pointless product... seriously, they plan to put this in OEM machines?

Just another great sounding feature to list on the final product.

What was those statistics Google had again, cooling a hard drive below its standard temperature was almost as bad as letting the drive overheat or something to that effect? ;)

Well that's useless... now if only we could overclock HDDs :rolleyes:

It is possible, but only if you have the right knowledge to do so :)

you risk data corruption easily, not worth the small "potential" speed increase
