Vortex 2 Hard Drive Cooling System

With hard drives now reaching speeds of 10,000 RPM we now have to concern ourselves with our hard drives reaching their heat threshold where we will then begin to see read errors, reduced life cycles and even loss of data. It has been shown that the normal case cooling system is not enough to provide adequate air flow directly to the hard drive so some other means of cooling the drives is required.

That is where the Vantec Vortex 2 Hard Drive Cooling System comes into play, with its unique Cross-Flow Blower the Vortex 2 is able to provide cool outside air directly to your hard drive, providing the best possible cooling solution available short of water cooling. Combine that with addition of Vibration Dampening built into the device and you not only have a very cool operating hard drive but one that will operate in near silence.
