No heat issues that I've encountered. Plus it's nice and roomy obviously, *much* quieter than the ol' Fireball and a little faster, I think. I dithered about doing it for a couple of years, then took the plunge and it was scarcely more difficult than adding an AirPort card or RAM. Physically speaking, I mean. It took an entire evening with Carbon Copy Cloner copying off to an external and then (overnight) back to the new internal, but the actual screwdriver work took all of 15 minutes.
