well last year with my pc on and the six (yes six) hdd's in my room would get really hot, as from midday in summer it has full sun until the sun goes down,it gets very hot - to the point i am saving up for a air con unit!

I have now got 1 x 1tb 2x 500gb discs in the pc, one of the 500's is used for backups ad set on a usb connection on the inside so after 20mins of non use it powers down and saves energy/heat.

The PC is in a desk and it does already in the winter here gets hot, I am looking into ways of cooling it better. I have put something called a "aftercooling" into the machine so it will keep it cool i hope lol - it works by keeping the input and output fans running for ten minutes after you turn the machine off - pity it doesnt have a battery then you could unplug it!

Sat here having a few beers wondering, would it be cheaper to turn off the heating and in my bedroom and leave my laptop, and two PC's on all night rather than put the heating on tonight - parents are away and I dont really wanna leave the whole house heated or go around changing the radiator settings as dad has it "just how I like it"

any thoughts . . . .

Eric,
I work in ICT, and when my pc on my desk failed on Monday I didnt think it could get much worse, rebuilt it, got it running, then the dvd drive failed.... not on the same level but its still the same law that applies.... the law of s*d
