What has the hdd temp to do with cpu tmeprature?

Reboot quickly (Alt-SysRq-S, Alt-SysRq-U, Alt-SysRq-B to do this really fast 
when the Magic SysRq feature is build into the kernel) and check the 
temperature in the BIOS.

To monitor it with Linux runing, emerge sys-apps/lm_sensors. A howto like 
http://gentoo-wiki.com/HARDWARE_Sensors might be of help when configuring.
