tmchow Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 My SSD cache drive is periodically reporting temps of 48C esp when under hard load from Plex with transcoding multiple streams. It happens maybe once a week for 10-15 mins. If it was a spinning disc I’d be automatically worried. Not sure if it’s harmful for SSD with those temps. I recently changed my cache drive from a smaller Samsung 128Gb to a Adata 500GB. Not sure if it’s the brand switch or just harder loads since it only started happening recently and I switched the drive about 3 months ago. Quote Link to comment
DZMM Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 google the model to check the max temp, but SSDs are usually good for 70C Quote Link to comment
tmchow Posted August 13, 2017 Author Share Posted August 13, 2017 google the model to check the max temp, but SSDs are usually good for 70C It’s the Adata SU800 and specs say operating temps are 0-70C. http://www.adata.com/us/specification/410 I’m unfamiliar how to interpret these specs. How close can I get to the max? If 70C is ok I’ll adjust unraid system warnings for that drive to increase temp Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 50C is perfectly normal and acceptable for SSDs after heavy writes, if it was getting close to 70C then you should improve cooling. Quote Link to comment
tmchow Posted August 13, 2017 Author Share Posted August 13, 2017 I just discovered unraid doesn’t support different temp thresholds for warnings based on drives. It’s a single setting for all drives. Ugh. Quote Link to comment

Set it for 60/65C, great thread! Quote Link to comment
