Fujitsu uses Celsuis: 14, 48, and 65 are all in Celsuis.
Good grief... I'm not surprised the drive's dying, then! I've seen drives lock up around 35C, I'm quite impressed the drive is still chugging along (to some extent, at least) at 48C - and a max of 65C? Looking at a few of Fujitsu's pages (eg, http://www.fujitsu.ca/products/mobile_hdd/mht_ah/physical_specs.html), ambient operating temperature is 5C to 55C - perhaps that's the cause of the drive dying?
Just out of curiosity, Nico, what're you doing with these drives that they're running so hot?
