Cool HD Cooler [Posted on 2007-05-06]
easy to install works great and does not make a lot of noise. I like seeing the Temps too.

Very useful for large hard drives. [Posted on 2007-07-20]
Very easy to install. Well-made and seems to run quietly. Should add to lifetime of today's very large drives that can run very hot.

More like a B+ Product [Posted on 2007-09-04]
Previously I had two drives (raid) mount in those 5.25 style aluminum heat sink adapters with rubber isolators. I figured the Antec would add a little air flow and bling with the temperature LED. So, I changed out one of the drives to this.
It was considerably larger than the front bezel on my Gigabyte case so I had to break out the file to fine tune things. Actually, the fan noise isn't all that bad (I figured there'd be some), but not near what I considered, really other than getting more HD seek/click noise it's really negligible. The other minor gripe is the LED display; a) I thought it was a slight bit to big, b) It's green (the ability to slip in color slides to get other colors would have been cool), c) When it flips one channel to the other a dot changes to indicate which senor it's showing. I realize they had to do something, although the dot is large and always flopping up/down. A smaller dot along with the display would do the trick.

I would say to make this an A+... the LED display should have moved off from what appears to be a long standing generic component from the 90's. Along with the addition of rubber isolators, that would have put it over the top.
