That reduces it's speed and overall cooling, but once you peer inside the HD20SC housing, you will see that the drive will definitely be cool enough with a lower fan speed (and perhaps even no fan at all). I reduced the fan speed with the resistor in order to reduce the noise. In the stock condition, the fan is louder than even a loud hard drive!
The fan is overkill because the drive case is designed to hold a full height 5.25 drive, which I think the largest of the SC offerings were.
