Nah if your HDD is dying it’s either your task really demands it OR you’re not cooling them enough.

If your GPU is dying it’s VRAM or VRM is failing under high heat. Manufacturers cut fan speed to cut fan noise until warranty claims increase substantially so they never provide sufficient cooling at stock settings.

Rackmount servers don’t sound like jet engines for no reason. Things fail if you don’t do that.
