Watercooled hard drive to the fore

We’ve all heard and seen watercooled solutions for overclocked processors, but don’t forget that other parts of the computer also emit heat! The hard drive is one example, and NEC and Hitachi have both collaborated to bring the first Watercooling System for Hard Drives in the world. Since there is no need for any pesky fans, your ears will barely be able to pick up the 25dB noise generated with this system. Apparently NEC will be throwing in this feature in their new desktops sometime down the road. I forsee flash-based media to take over the hard drive as the storage device of choice so having a watercooled hard drive system by then would be redundant. What do you think?
