So some quick information. I have 4 hdds and one ssd in my custom build. I also have two hard drive bays in my pc and both can hold up to 4 drives stacked above each other. I can remove the top drive bay to allow more airflow and room for gpus if I need to.
None of the gpus im looking to buy will fit in my case with the top drive bay installed.
So my question is if I remove the top drive bay and place all my hdds in the bottom bay will that damage them in the long run?
Concidering 2 of my hard drives are from older pcs and 1 puts off quite a bit of heat. As opposed to having them spaced out between 2 drive bays which I would prefer but wouldn't be possible.
