wd6400aaks

i HAVE 2, They are running @ 34 an 38 degrees Celcius. Is this a normal temp, what is the max?

Temperature is fine. Maximum temperature can be located on the datasheet on WD's website. Just remember that the closer you get to the extremes of the range, the higher the failure rate is.

My single 6400AAKS is running at 31ºC. I haven't been doing much though just browsing the internet so I guess that would be an idle temp. According to WD's website it looks like it can operate up to 60ºC. (http://www.wdc.com/en/products/products.asp?driveid=394)

That temperature is fine...a quick Google search about the temperature maximums of hard disk drives could've prevented the necessity of this thread, though.
