No SMART errors, and the shop said they cleaned everything just a couple of months ago when I had them do the drive swaps. RAM has been OK since it was upgraded from 4GB to 6GB quite some time ago. The old (smaller) 7200RPM HDD used to get pretty hot on occasion when driven robustly, and the SSD was immediately much cooler, except when used in conjunction w/ one of the optical bay partitions. With the current heat wave, the MBP just doesn't seem to like it. I unmounted the optical bay drives an hour and a half ago, and the MBP was cool after resting, but has heated up again pretty quickly. It's in the mid/upper 80°'s inside here today.
