Very Hot HDD

i recently moved my seagate ST9250827AS ATA from a mini itx case to my old clevo m57u laptop, and ive noticed that the temperatures of the HDD have been about 52 degrees (while defrag), although i never measured temps in the itx machine. the drive isn't that old (probably from around 2009), so it shouldn't be really having any probelms...

It's not an issue. What temp is the drive when idle?

My laptop drive is sat at 49c extracting a 9GB file. Nothing to worry about

Drives in my server box run a similar temps with no problems whatsoever....don't worry it's ok.
