I'm thinking to cool my harddrives by attach cobber tubes on the alluminum box (where you place the harddrives), and I got some questions.

What is the black metal on the middle of the HHD (al first then the black stuff and at the bottom the electronics? It's sems to be hotter then the aluminium on the top, is this correct?

I was thinkink to insulate the HHD, so the noise was redused, but when I where reading in my school boks for a test today, I read that the HHD need acces to air trough a filter innside the HHD. Where is this filter located on the new HHD? What insulate should I use that reflects/dempes the noie but let the air go trough?

I got a a setup withe two T's (fill/drain the system of water), does all of the water from the system get out when I drain it, even the is the channel is going in loops?
