Aging for three different kinds of cheese

I have a 9 bottle wine fridge that I am using to age my one Parmesan and two Romano cheeses.  They both call for 55 degrees temp and about 80% RH.  I want to know if I can put a Swiss cheese that calls for 45 degrees and about the same % RH in the same fridge.  Can I split the difference in temperature and put it at 50 degrees for the 3 cheeses?  Or do I need a separate fridge for the Swiss?  Thanks.

In my experience, exact ageing temperature is not super critical (if your humidity is OK).
I age all my cheeses at the same temperature (11C) in fridges, and they work fine.  Lower temps did result in slower ageing.
Your suggestion seems sensible.
