Medwynd Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Is there currently an easy way built into unraid to control based on system temps? Currently the fans fin full speed making it exceedingly noisy. Looking through the search on threads about this, they all seem to be a few years old so was looking for an easy way to possibly get the fan noise under control. I currently have a Supermicro X10SL7-F with the following fans connected to the headers: CPU Heatsink - Stock PWM Front intake, 120mm PWM Rear exhaust, 120mm PWM Side exhaust, 120mm PWM Top Exhaust, 200mm non-pwm Quote Link to comment
trurl Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Are you sure you know how to use the search on this forum? It can be a little confusing. See search tips in my sig. I was already aware of this, but I also found it easily with a search. System AutoFan in Dynamix - V6 Plugins Quote Link to comment

Medwynd Posted December 14, 2015 Author Share Posted December 14, 2015 Thanks, I was using a combination of the search box in the upper right and google to pull out links Quote Link to comment
switchman Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 You might have to use something like this. Use one PWM fan to drive multiple fans.

trurl Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 Thanks, I was using a combination of the search box in the upper right and google to pull out links I think that's what a lot of people do. They are missing out on the real search features. I seldom use the upper right search box. Quote Link to comment
