[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1153480, member: 56379"] Yes...when I read this thread earlier I was thinking the same thing...as well as the recommended operating temp. specs from Apple (click on "tech specs" in the link): [url=http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/shop_mac/family/mac_pro?mco=MTg5MTY5NDQ]Mac Pro - Buy Mac Pro desktop computers - Apple Store (U.S.)[/url] ...Apple recommends 50°F - 95°F. @OP: What's probably mostly effected by the colder temps is the lubricant used in the bearings of a hard drive. Just like lubricants in a automobile (or anywhere else lubricants are used)...cooler/colder temps make the lubricant more viscous...which then requires more effort to get the hard drive spinning. - Nick [/QUOTE]
