Boss just didnt want to spend more on air con/flow systems because it cost too much, but if we lost our equipment due to heating, even for 24 hours could prove very costly.	rob_on_guitar (4196)

I grew up believing HDDs operating far below or above their 'optimal' rated temperatures have lower reliability .: often lead to degraded performance. They do have moving bits in them that expand/contract, even if ever so slightly, afterall. • Contrary to previously reported results, we found very little correlation between failure rates and either elevated temperature or activity levels. 209.85.173.104	beeswax34 (63)
