You need the hot air to escape, if anything place the fan on the side vents in future & keep underneath clear

there is no L shaped part on the back of the laptop, but i found where the hard drive is because the removable parts of it are the battery, which I know which is; the memory because of a sign that has the symbol of a book and the hard drive has the symbol of three discs on top of each other. Now that I know where it is I can say the problem is there because the extra fans (I said I put them directly to where the hot air escaped, which is the opposite side of where the hard drive is -_-) were NEVER directed to the hard drive  >:( I'll be sure to center the fans in the future. Right now I don't have the tools to open the laptop up but in a few days I will therefore I will try to solve the problem but until there I'll be careful so the laptop doesn't fall or anything...

If you’re going to check if the hard drive is seated properly, it would be a good idea to take the plate off where the hot air vent is & clean up the fan from dust.
You should have had that lap top stripped down by now & rebuilt lol
Lap tops do get very hot hard drives can operate from 30c to 50c
& CPU at 62c to 100c if a CPU over heats the computer will shut down.
You can put a block of wood to lift up the back of the lap top for maximum  air flow, But at the end of the day all I wanted to know was whether your hard drive was seated correctly or not.

Ok so I took it to a repair shop and both graphic card and hard drive were corrupted and the only thing they could do was get back some of the files... This already happened a while ago but I thought I should shut down the issue.
