Putting a pelt on a hd is a BAD idea, you won't get better performance, in fact you will get worce as the hd is set to work optimally with the platters at or just above room temp, at any other temperature circuitry has to compensate for the thermal expansion (or contraction) of the platters. Niether is it likely to give better reliability.
