  1. This only provides the drivers to access the hardware. This is from a project on github https://github.com/mafredri/asustor-platform-driver that was developed on Asustor hardware running Debian. This Unraid plugin gets it available on the Asustor hardware running Unraid. If you read down in the github link, it explains how to control the LED lights. I believe @Terebi has only used it for fan control so far. That's all I have done with it. Using this it87 driver addresses the problem with the inverted pwm fancontrol on the Asustor hardware. I have played around and tried the LED lights and I can control them, but I haven't had time to go further with them. Mathias also has another repository here: https://github.com/mafredri/lcm that he used to control the Asustor LCD screen through its serial communication port. I would like to eventually do this, but again I'm short on time to work on it now.
  2. In my AS6704T, I have two 16TB IronWolf Pros and two 1TB WD Red NVMes running in Raid 1 cache. The NVMe drives will get thermo warnings within 5 minutes if I don't at least have the fan running at 750 rpm. I think the links you sent should help me add the NVMe drives in without too much effort. I was using your script (with a few changes) before last week, but when I put the new AsustorPFD plugin on, I thought I'd give the Dynamix control a try. It works "OK" by setting the minimum PWM speed to keep the fan running at low speed, but it's not ideal. When the HDDs spin up it works OK, but I try to keep them spun down as much as possible. The 1TB cache setup does a nice job and keeping them off. Thanks for the links @Terebi I'll post when I get it done.
  3. @Terebi I have the Asustor AS6704T and even though the Dynamix System Autofan control lists my NVMe drives, it appears to only control fan speeds with the HDDs temps. This isn't ideal when you have the HDDs spin down. I've set the minimum pwm value to 114 to keep the fan running at little under 1200 rpm. However, I think I may expand on your script a bit more and look at CPU, HDD, and NVMe drives with temperature ranges for each and run the fan at the highest required setting in the future. If I get time to work on it, I'll post it.
  4. Yes, I'm on 6.12.6. Help is very much appreciated when you can. I've worked with several version of Linux in the past, but I'm no expert. This is my first working with Unraid, so I have a lot to learn. Thanks!
  5. I am working on switching my new Asustor AS6704T over to Unraid. I found Terebi's comments on the fan control. I used some of the suggestions and have the fan control script running for now. However, I also looked at the Github link from mafredri. That looks like the ultimate solution for the Asustor NAS systems running Unraid. Mafredri's "asustor-platform-driver" will address the fan control and the LCD screen and the LED lights on the front to give full functionality of the hardware like the Asustor ADM system does. I used the IT87 plugin that @ich777 provides to get the fan control working. However, if I want to implement the full "asustor-platform-driver" I will need to get the updated IT87 code in a plugin. I'm not familiar with the process to create the plugins, and I started looking at the links on the forum for it. I will need to do some learning before I can get this point. The gpio will also need to be used for the LEDs. From mafredri's Github page the following note along with make and install lines are given: Note: The following dependencies from the mainline linux kernel are required, if they're not included by your distribution you may need to compile them yourself (note that some modules are only required on specific ASUSTOR models): gpio-ich (AS6) hwmon-vid (for the contained asustor-it87 module) It would seem like this "asustor-platform-driver" would be a useful plugin for a lot of people using the Asustor hardware. It covers quite a few models. Is this something that may go into a future version?
