  In the latest issue of PC World there are two articles on
hard disk systems. One of these articles claims that if you
put a hard disk inside the PC (not XT) cabinet there is
no way to dissipate the heat. I'd like to put a hard disk in
my PC but have 512k and don't want to cook anything in there.
  So the question is: has anyone out there had any problems
with heat and internal hard disks? This is not directed only
at IBM PCs. It seems that this problem, if it exists, should
arise on most machines that were not explicitly designed for
hard disks.
  The same article mentioned FCC class B certification for
use in residential areas. Do you folks with hard disks at
home interfere with the TV reception of your family and
neighbors?
  If I get any interesting answers, I'll summarize to the net.
