July 6, 20224 yr I've been running the hddtemp docker to Telegraf for a long time now and for a number of my HDD's it will show "0" in Grafana about 75% of the time. The other 25% of the time it will read the correct temp. I'm posting this in General because I'm not sure if there's a better way to do this. I think these drives are actually responding with "0" for the temp or hddtemp is reporting it that way. It's not a null value. I have Prometheus running but the Node Exporter doesn't do smartd temps. Should I keep fighting at figuring out why my temps don't report correctly, configure Grafana to not except a "0" value, or is there a different way of capturing hdd temps that I should be going with? Is there a way to have the Node Exporter plugin report temps? These are all consumer grade drives, mostly IronWolf 8TB. All connected to the MoBo SATA ports.
