TODDLT Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 Can anyone recommend a motherboard, without completely breaking the bank, that will allow me to use Dynamix AutoFan Control to operate based on hard drive temp, rather than CPU temp? Does such a thing exist? Or is there a way to do it as an addon? Quote Link to comment

In 30 years I haven't seen a board that can or does something like this... But maybe a modern server-board can do this... i dont know... Edited May 16, 2021 by Zonediver Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 You can do that with the IPMI plugin and and board with IPMI support, e.g., from Supermicro, current boards will cost from around $200, you can also get used much cheaper. Quote Link to comment
