wanna look at my solution ??
  2x heatsinks sandwiched 3x HDD, i put thermal paste on the sides of the HDD. and a very low speed 92mm fan blowing in front.... it helps to lower the temperature a lot man...the heatsink is slightly warm only. |

it exceeds the normal CDROM size by 8mm in total....
if you have a clear space under the floppy area, putting this over there wont be any problem at all...... |

Nice Big Mac by Allngap but it doesn't do anything to cool the hottest part of the disk which is the motor and the chips on the pcb
