I'd reconsider the drive cooler. You'd be amazed how much cooler your drive will be and you'll hardly notice it running in comparison to the whine of the SCSI drive. I have one in my fileserver and it makes almost no audible difference because my CPU fan is actually a little louder and the drive is always cool to the touch. A case fan blowing across the drive will do the trick too. I would not recommend the heatsink style enclosures though. In the event of fan failure they retain so much heat it starts baking your entire computer. Just a few more cents to chew there. :)
