This is related to the lubricant that is used in the drives. Seagate is to blame.. They discovered higher spindle speeds require lubricants that like higher temps... There is a secondary effect due to the way that magnetized materials flip and hold at higher temps. Again, my data may be old as I worked in that industry 20 years ago..
