U can use a HDD fan to cool ur drive or try cleaning ur cabinet and the clutter in it, but 46 degrees are quite normal if u ask me and it won't damage ur drive. I doubt what u used to analyze ur HDD- They are all rubbish I suppose.

It is quite ok. My HDD temp is near 42 degrees and fitness is 98%. I doubt they will ever show 100%.

HD can withstand tempratures of 50C easily. Anything beyond that & you need to worry
