Hard disk water cooling. sorayama_65 Dec 1st, 08, 06:09 PM #1

Hi, does anyone know where to get a hard disk watercooling block/component in Singapore? Saw a few on eBay, brand is Evercool.
Anything similiar in SLS?

but is it really necessary to water-cool a hardisk? The risk of it breaking and dripping on ur hd fall outweighs the benefits

just a thought of doing it, because i'm now peltier water cooling my rig, idle on my duo is at -5.8 and 17 on my vga. Thought it would be nice to see some below ambient temperature value for the hard disk too.
