How much airflow do these things need anyway?
yeah as long as the tape is working with gravity and not against it, you'll also want to make sure to not get crazy while moving the PC or just remove the drive when you do.
They don't need much airflow, as long as they aren't completely sealed off they should be fine. My 3tb 7200rpm barracuda stays under 40c while between the mobo tray and case back panel with no additional venting or fans whatsoever
