    yea watercooled PSU's are around alright.

    ive run HD in open air before with no problems. That said, I didn't put any critical data on it, but used it for a week with no probs. 6gb WD IIRC.

    I suspect the larger aureal density of HD's these days would make them more succeptible to dust\moisture damage.
