"I had no idea my HDD was running that hot!! I don’t even like my CPU running at those temperatures. Now you have 3 speed options with this cooler, High, Low and off. Vantec claim that this cooler can offer up to a 40% drop in hard drive temperatures, so if we say that I’m generally running at around 40 degrees, the lowest we could expect to get is around 24 degrees (around room temperature), which sounds pretty good to me."

"The NXP-301 is only available in silver, however, for those of you wanting something that would fit in a 3.5” drive bay the NXP-305 is available in both black and silver. The panel has three fan controls and the switch to control your cold cathodes. Each of these channels can output 18watts, which I can assure you is more than you will need for any fan, based on the fact a good CPU cooler only requires 2.28watts!"

"I'm not exactly a champion gamer, but I do play a fair bit of First Person Shooters and after using this mouse I can safely say the disadvantages of using a wireless mouse are almost nullified by the latest generation of mice."
