You have to look at alot here, what case design, fans, clutter in the case, space around the hard drive, how many hard drives you have together. From what I see the design doesn't have too much air flow in the case design. The best bet is keep the are around the computer uncluttered, and maybe look into getting better case fans.

You can try it, the better the air flow , the cooler the unit. Go for a good quality fan as they produce less noise. Check out Thermaltake, Vantec, Coolmaster, they are good ones.
