I was in the middle of testing 8x 8TB WD Reds on my test bench, I turned the fans off for what was supposed to be a couple minutes while I was moving some cords around, then the door bell rang and I completely forgot about them. I've come back about 1 and a half hours later and the temps are between 65C-69C on each drive.
Just for the record of inquiring minds, the temps are fine with fans on at 26-31C+/-.
Son of a bitch. Are these going to be screwed? They all show fine in SMART right now.
It looks like I'm borderline on the specs from WD site:
Temperature (°C)
Operating
0 to 65
Non-operating
-40 to 70
