Hi Ricardo
I have a couple of drives that run hot - Made even worse due to them being in removable caddies. Installing a small 40mm Sq fan has helped to reduce the heat build up.
Anything that cools down a component (HDD, CPU, etc) will help with long term reliability. Therefor, I would check with other users to see if heat build up is common, and install a fan to cool things down. You can purchase fan units that screw on to HDDs for a few pounds..
Regards, Paul.

Leaving it for 30 mins, it booted OK. Does anyone think it may be overheating?
