One of the disks’ SATA-to-USB controller used to overheat when the disks were side-by-side. Adhering a small heatsink to the controller resolved that but spacing them in this X pattern further decreased their operating temperature to high 40s, low 50s.
Nice! How’s the air flow and temps?
65-70°C during Prime 95 max heat torture test.
