HDD Water-Block: Koolance HD-55-L06

The last of the water-blocks to be discussed in this review is the Koolance HD-55-L06. It is meant to cool 3.5” hard disk drives. The water-block comes in a small box designed like the previous boxes.

Besides the water-block, the box contains a brief installation guide and a pack with screws, nuts and spacers:

The water-block is almost the same size as a regular HDD: 102x164x15mm.

It is made from aluminum and weighs 105 grams. It has a simple design. There is a metallic surface of the heat-spreading plate on one side and a robust insulating pack with the coolant on the other side:

The black plate can be removed so that the water-block could cool two HDDs simultaneously.

The internal diameter of the fittings is 6 millimeters. The installation procedure is described in the manual you can find at the official website. The recommended price of this water-block is $50.
