What are your average Hard Drive temperatures? Mine ranges from 52 to 60 degrees celsius when it's been on for a while. This seems a bit hot. Can someone tell me if this is ok and I'm just worrying too much, or does my Sentia have a heating problem?

After about a half hour of use the drive read 47 degrees celcius. Now after an hour it is reading 51 degrees celcius.

Just feeling the bottom where the hard drive is I know that it has felt much hotter than when its now reading 51.

Is that too hot? I don't know what the "normal" temperature is for a laptop and I just wanted to be certain.
