Per-device temperature threshold

[brainbone]

Is there a way to have certain devices, like NVMe drives, use a higher threshold for temperature warnings? 

 

NVMe can and do run at much hotter temperatures than HDDs.   When I set the threshold to warn me when HDD temps are getting too high, I end up getting constant warnings when my NVMe devices get heavy write activity.

Click on the device and you can set a custom temperature.

Crap.  I see that now for devices under the array.  Unfortunately, some of my NVMe devices are Unassigned Devices.  Doesn't look it's supported there.  Guess this is a question for the Unassigned Devices plugin thread.

 

Thanks.

It's not, usual workaround is to set higher temps on the general settings, then set individual temps on all arrays devices, obviously if you have non NVMe unassigned devices you'll stop getting warnings on those.

You can also set the "global" setting high (Settings - Disk Settings), then set the individual disks lower as needed.

Has anyone come up with a better solution than this?  I'd rather the default settings apply to my array so those settings automatically get applied to new drives.  It's seems like a bit of a hack to use the general settings to apply temperature thresholds to a few unassigned devices.  Currently, I get a warning every time I write something to my NVMe drives 😞

 

It would be great if we could assign temp thresholds to unassigned devices.
