as to the hdd, you you thought about making a custom water cooler? i mean if you are skilled enough to do something like the aximiser im sure that you could make a cooler for the hdd.
i have an ejclsure of my 120gb wd protojee which has a fan on it. it is a nice inclosure but i dont recommend it, it was a rpyle pain to get the hdd inside and when i did i had a hard time gettign the top cover on. one thing you could try is get something like THIS and find an enclosure that will accomadate it and has a small fan i nthe back. that should give you ample cooling. i would do soethign about the heat pretty soon as heat can casue a good hdd to go bad in a short matter of time.

Think I listed everything, but several things are devices we already have, like GPS or HD USB. If you do not have HD USB you probably have an old IDE HD not in use. HD USB box for it costs only $15.
Think also the TFT is an expensive device. You can get a cheaper video car TFT with no VGA resolution and no VGA input.

Thank you for your directions about HD heat. I really have to do something. I did not take too much care about that because I just have entretaintment data in it. Also beause it pass a heavy test this summer.
