Everything may last longer when you keep them in within a certain temp range. I've seen a lot of things over time for hard drives. The issue the better you cool the drives the more you give up. In data centers fans are running full speed most the time. In a house you usually don't want all that noise. We like hot swap bays so it's easy to replace a drive but that means you got drives right next to each out sharing all the head each drive make. I've seen 5 inch drive bay adapters for hard drive that turn a 3.5 inch drive into a 5 inch size drive which is 1.5 inches of heat sync around the drive to give the drive the best way to cool down with air cooling. I've purchased it and ran it in a server for years like this. You can't have this and make it hotswapable. Had to shutdown the server and open it up and unscrew it all to replace drives. I didn't have any fail which is the point of it but when increasing the size you have a lot more work to do. Thanks for posting your request. If there was a tool like this we'd think about adding it. Thanks

Yes you can ignore it for now. I beleive we fixed this in dev but not sure when it will be pushed out. Might come with a host of other things.
