| Details: Introducing the ultimate in hard drive cooling and silencing, the Silentmaxx Aluminum Hard Drive Enclosure. This product is perfect for customers who require something with more cooling power than the Silent Drive and offers better noise reduction than Zalman's ZM-2HC2.
The whole enclosure is manufactured from 100% aluminum, which offers the very best in heat dissipation. So much so that this enclosure is compatible with all hard drive that run at 10,000 RPM or lower. Because the hard drive is completely encased in the enclosure air born noise is exceptionally low.
The Silentmaxx Aluminum Hard Drive Enclosure also includes rubber mounts. This stops any vibrational noise generated by the hard drive being transferred onto the PC chassis. This significantly cuts down on the "rumbling" and "clicking" noises which are very common in hard drives.
Enclosing a hard drive will typically increase its running temperature by around 3-5°C. For peace of mind, it is sometimes useful therefore to be able to monitor the temperature of your hard drive "real time" within Windows, to ensure that the drive is not overheating. For hard drives which support this feature,
you can use a free program called DTemp to display the drive temperature in your Windows system tray. We would
recommend setting DTemp's "Critical Temperature" setting to around 60-65°C, in line with most
manufacturers' specifications.
