Hi August!

WH>> When I work in 31C, I am not very happy. If your HDD is
WH>> like me, then, yes, that's bad news for it. :-) Happy new
WH>> year.
AA> I'm reading the following as common info:
AA> "HDD Overheating Symptoms
AA> "The normal temperature of a hard drive is from 40C� to 50C�
AA> when it is in work. The temperature of HDD should not be more
AA> than 70 C�. An IDE hard drive is usually from 30 C� to 50 C�.
AA> It probably causes data loss or even worse it may damage the
AA> hard drive when its temperature is up to 100 C�.
Meanwhile, the colder your drive is, the longer it will live. I try not to warm my drives over 35�C.
[fido@brorabbit ~]$ sudo smartctl -a /dev/sda |grep -i temp

AA> Further to my enlightenment:
AA> C:\Documents and Settings\User>chkdsk
AA> The type of the file system is NTFS.
AA> Volume label is SYSTEM.
AA> WARNING! F parameter not specified.
AA> Running CHKDSK in read-only mode.
AA> CHKDSK is verifying files (stage 1 of 3)...
AA> File verification completed.
AA> CHKDSK is verifying indexes (stage 2 of 3)...
[...skipped...]
AA> Index verification completed.
AA> Errors found. CHKDSK cannot continue in read-only mode.
It only says that these files are currently open. This is normal. Try HDDscan.
