I'd rather all that happen than loose a hard drive... Which has happened a few times.

Totally agree about backing up! I am backed up in several locations as even the back ups fail sometimes.

Monitoring the heat was one of the things we tried and it wasn't that. All the fans seemed to be working. Glad I have a laptop that I can use for now but the desktop is a lot more powerful.
