    Hey everybody! I'm pretty green here, but have started to change the hardware in my computer myself, and it has proved to work so long. Now I have gotten another hard disk to install (my comp is rather old and needs updating; anyways, my hard disk is 80 GB and the new one is also 80 GB) and am wondering if I need also an extra cooler because of having 2 hard disks or I can do without. I know it must be a really simple question, but then I am a beginner, as said..

    Not really. As long as the case has decent airflow to begin with, a second drive isn't going to add that much.

    Thanks a lot!! Installed the new HD yesterday, had a bit of a trouble until it agreed to lay decently on top of the other HD, but it's working now.
