Well Ive never had any problems but I do always put an 80mm fan in my xbox before doing hdd upgrades. You could always edit your bios to up your stock fan speed to produce more airflow. That has worked for some people on these boards.

i bumped my bios to a fan speed of 60% with no problems. Higher speed would probably give better results as well.
