Hi folks :-)
Which value hddtemp show? (about my ata disks, between 45-55 C)
Is it correct? Or I should worry?
45-55 C seems a little hot. They will probalby work for you but your
drives will probably die sooner than later. Either they are too close
together and/or you need more direct fans on your drives.
I think normal operating temps for drives is between 35 and 40 C.
perhaps check with your drive manufacturer and check the recommended
operating temps.

If Pol should worry, then my drive must have more than 9 lives. ;)
Perhaps this old drive doesn't really have a sensor, but this is typical
of entries in /var/log/daemon.log:
Jun 23 08:21:47 localhost smartd[2616]: Device: /dev/hda, SMART Usage
Attribute: 231 Temperature_Celsius changed from 239 to 166
Jun 23 08:51:47 localhost smartd[2616]: Device: /dev/hda, SMART Usage
Attribute: 231 Temperature_Celsius changed from 166 to 157
Jun 23 09:21:48 localhost smartd[2616]: Device: /dev/hda, SMART Usage
Attribute: 231 Temperature_Celsius changed from 157 to 144
Maybe it gives new meaning to the phrase, "really smokin'!" This
desktop PIII has been reliably running debian for 3 1/2 years.
Those are not the "raw" values, I think (TM)
What does
/usr/sbin/smartctl -a -d ata /dev/hda
show?
