Indeed, IBM's disks do work a little better if they are aggressively
cooled. I went looking for where our surviving 4 disks went and it
turns out that they found homes in desktops. They'll last for several
months longer (and counting) if you put a powerful fan on top of them.
Still, most other disk brands don't need a dedicated cooling fan just
to work properly in a single-disk configuration, and usually more than
100 bad sectors remapped after purchase is a sign of imminent total
failure.
