B, Are the drives in a seperate storage unit, or part of the main CPU case/cabinet? Also, if this system is at an ISP type data center faciltiy, in a stack-rack cabinet, you might have them flow check the cabinet with the door open and closed to see what sort of airflow you are getting. Sometimes customers would leave the door off the cabinet and air was not being circulated in and out properly. In my prior life at ISPs and former DCs, there were customers dense-packing and stacking various units of different types right on top of each other, so close, with no real air gap in between each unit on some of the older racks, and if the data center chillers were not blowing cool and flowing perfectly in and out of the cabinets, overheating and internal component failure resulted more often. If it is at an ISP, you might ask one of their raised floor techs how many high-temp alarms they get from their chillers, and if other customers are experiencing component failures. It could be their are maxed out on their chillers... lots of things to check if this is at an ISP. PM me if you want to brainstorm some more..
