HDD's running too hot?

Most slimline systems run at this temp, but that is a little high for a normal tower case.
 
Those temps are a bit higher than I am comfortable with.
An easy fix is to put a silent 80mm fan near them or mount the drives near a front intake fan (best method).

Most PCs I build have an extra 80mm silent fan included somewhere, mine is drawing/blowing air over the memory, back of the video card and the chipset coolers.
It also provides a 'bit' of redundancy in case another fan fails as it keeps case air moving.
 
There's nowhere to put a fan in my case unfortunately. I might just buy a P183...
