Surely is possible if you utilize the side of the hard drive to cool it. The New Seagate SATA drive have huge heatsinks on the sides of them. They obviously realize it is a sufficient cooling method.

Rotor's current blocks cool either the top or the bottom, and allow you to still use you hard drvie cages. One that would work on the sides, would require you to mount it in your 5.25 cage.
