[SOLVED] change temperature warning level per drive?


Recommended Posts

I'm getting annoyed by the temperature warnings. The WD RED drives i'm slowly replacing my older green drives with have a rated operating temperature up to 70c [1] and my older WD Green drives up to 60C [2]. While i'm aware that lower temperature correlates with longer life, at this time i don't really care :)

 

The system sends me emails at (i think) 50 degrees. How can i change these thresholds?

thanks - wasnt aware of that. Any way to set it per drive? i'm prepared to tolerate higher temperatures on the newer drives as they're spec'ed higher.

No - per drive setting is not an option.

 

I think it has been mentioned as an idea somewhere in the Roadmap section of the forum.
