I installed one of those Toshibas 3 days ago into my NeXTstation Color.  It  
replaced the 406 Mb Seagate.  The air temperature measured between the heat  
sink fins by a 6 inch industrial thermometer changed from 92 degrees to 96  
degrees.  I didn't measure the room temperature at the time but it usually  
is in the 65 - 70 degree range.
