OK, help me understand this.

I have 2 Maxtor 200 GB IDE 133 drives. Motherboard Moniter 5 is reporting a
temperature of 23 degrees for drive 0 and 42 degrees for drive 1. I would
expect drive 1 to be hotter ... its in a removable bay. but 23 can't be
correct, room temperature is 25.

Ok, so it is just a gamble (like most hardware).
Well the reason I aksed was that my 2 year old P3CE system
stopped working after only two years.

It also depends on the heat in the disks.
Keep your disks under +40°C
