Once again, I will point to the manufacturers specs, which also state
the temperature and humidity range for operation. I routinely run hard
disks in both vertical and horizontal mountings, and as long as they are not
too hot to comfortably touch, there is not much likelyhood of warpage
due to heat being a factor. If you plan to run electronic gear in an
environment that can get that hot, all bets are off.
