Interesting. I will investigate. |
|
|
By the way: are you sure that hard disk temperaratures should be used to control a fan located somewhere not only on the hd? |

Hi Alfredo, To your second point: This fan, conrolled by the hdd's, is in a high position of my towers (I have 2 machines with same setup). In case of high temperature of the hdd's the fan runs and evacuates air out of the sealed tower. This pulles fresh air in the tower - from homemade :-) 5,25" Inlet's right in front of my HDD mountig brackets. This air , passing by the hdd's is good enough to reduce the temps alot. Cooling works very nicely. :-) This setup saves me from mounting 40mm fans in the hdd-area, which are not really silent. There are some more "controlled" inlets for fresh air. 1 in area underneath graphics-card, and another one in CPU area. A Minimum of fresh air is always moved into the tower by the fan in the powersupply. (130mm fan, very quiet, automaticly regulated). - But this air is in case of big filetransfers not quite enough for the hdd's, therefor an addional fan controled by hdd temps. ------- I think the problem of regulation results in the fact that only in case of "blue arrow down" the fans are slowed down. As soon as temperature rises, - let's say from 18 |

Absolutely :-) |

Hi Alfredo, I did some further thinking on the regulation of the fans. If I get it right: 1. Fanspeed doesn |

Hi Alfredo, "As far as I know, on 99.5% of computers where SpeedFan is run at boot the temperature reaches one of the highest levels because the CPU is used for a long time." Yes of course, but the time while system is booting up, fans run at 100 % anyways, because speedfan starts in the later part fo the bootsequenz. My CPU reaches 48 |

I'm looking for the best solution to the issue you highlighted, which is that on some specific configuration (i.e. mixing hard disk temperatures and other temperatures to control a single fan) the algo is too slow to lower fan speeds. |

Sounds good, and might be a good improvement not only for me, but for many others, who might face the same situation. Thanks for the fast reply, Regards and a nice weekend..... username :-) |
