To get the very best performance (especially out a case with few fan intakes/outakes), some people cut a hole the size of their radiator in the top (usually dual 120). I dont know if your up to cutting that hole (I wouldn't be), but if you are, you now have an easy way of keeping your case non-cluttered, and a really high performance radiator that gets air directly from outside.
The pictures here:

give you a better idea of where you can place the radiator. I'm not sure exactly where you would place it at first... Consider the 'make a hole in the top of your case' idea first.

You aint gonna loze your data! The risk is very small, and I wouldn't consider buying more expensive raptors to image my other raptors, when I have a very small chance of losing data in the first place. The solution to most computer problems applies here: don't use winblowz...

The case already has sufficient dampening. Silence won't be so much of a problem, It isnt usually a problem even if you have an all fan rig.
