To give you my 10cents, I always use Seagate SCSI drives where possible, and so far haven't noticed any problems. In terms of cooling, I normally go for a decent sized case, space the drives apart, and use those front blanking plate fan things. I personally think they're close to useless, but they're so cheap, it seams crazy not to use them.

Not particularly helpful saying Seagate are unrelaible if that's what you have! Ron, checkout Seagate SeaTools. They should tell you if there's anyhing wrong with the drive. BTW, what drives do you have, e.g. Baracuda 7,200 RPM?
