Hello... Could you reference or type the exact MODEL of your power supply for us?
Typically you have to 'de-rate" the outputs in devices due to high ambient temperatures... as a "simple test" take a cover off your case to allow more cooler air into the case... the problem continue?
Typically you will see a wire insulator dis-color OR a PIn in a connector blacken as a "Visual inspection" of a wiring or ampacity problem.
Also High humidity will also decrease the cooling effectiveness of AIR... basically Air is one of the worst thing to use as a Cooling molecule... but it is free and abundant too use... Factories can experience higher temperature and humidity changes, and water cooling systems/pipes are routed above all areas for easy tap ins.
Having a multiple portable "air conditioners" installed on all electrical cabinets and a full time crew to maintain them is common.
Typically using that many HD's in one case will also increase the heat in a case... sometimes addition fans directed to them can help.
Hi Ironsounds and thanks for the detailed reply. In answer to your questions
exact MODEL of your power supply for us? RS-600-ACAB-B1
a "simple test" take a cover off your case to allow more cooler air into the case... the problem continue? YES
"Visual inspection" of a wiring or ampacity problem - nothing as far as I can see
Also High humidity will also decrease the cooling effectiveness - It is wet season so the humidity is high. We are averaging 50mm rain per day and 80%+ humidity at present but the problem is no worse than when drier and much less humid a couple of weeks ago
Typically using that many HD's in one case will also increase the heat in a case. I have a front case fan and rear case fan driven of the mother board plus an extra fan mounted in the side cover and connected to a molex. All are 120mm fans
