i ws installing another PCI card in my 7300 today & i found that the HD felt very hot ~ i've replaced the original 2 gig with a 4gig that'd only fit in the drive bay below , the only place i can see to fit an extra fan is an area with holes in just behind the HD ~ sort of a window into the PCI bay , if i put an extra fan in there which way should it blow ? extract from the HD area towards the PCI slots , or blow from PCI bay into the HD area ? ,
I put a small fan in my G3 DT and I had it blowing towards the PCI slots since three is an open vent in the back of the case.
It just seemed to me to be the best way to run it.
You can also get a fan that goes in a PCI slot if you have an empty one.
