I ve got a 320 gb of ext hdd standin alongside my laptop, vertically, is it better to lay it down? I ve put it standing cos the casing was design to be standing..... (nexstar3 by vantec)
Any suggestion?

And by the way how do u know if ur hdd is overheating, esp if u r using an external hdd? how do u judge it? by touching the covering????

I m cant bear the idea of my ext hdd died with all the animes n series inside...... X(
