Operating Temperature vs Ambient Temperature, an XRackPro

I might be splitting hairs, but can anyone give me the official definition of "Operating Temperature" (OT) as used in the Xserve RAID spec?

I understood OT to mean the room temperature where it operates--because they also list "Storage Temperature," which would be the room temp where it's stored.

But does OT really mean "Ambient Temperature"--as listed in the RAID Admin utility?

In other words, will the RAID overheat when the Admin utility shows it reaching 95 degrees? Or when the room (or the inside of an xRackPro) temperature hits 95 degrees?

Ultimately, I want to put this RAID in an XRackPro, and I need to know that it won't overheat in my 73-75 degree studio.


2.8 TB 4 400's & 3 400's Raid 5
