I just aquired a PAR and a micropolis 1.6 gig drive, and am having a problem with the drive getting a little too warm (I hope that's all the problem is). I seem to recall this being a problem when the PAR was first introduced, and since this is one of the first drives/hardware to be released, am assuming this one is likely to fall prey to this problem. I just want to know if others have experienced overheating problems with the drive(s), and what they did to rectify the problem. Was there an external case you could get? Run your ideas by me! Thanks! Mark
