Let
Additional InformationCan you slight modify the control logic? I propose 2 variants of rules:
First variant:
- if any involved temperature rise, rise fan speed
- if all involved temperatures are constant, hold fan speed
- if any temperature begins fall (and others are constant), slow down fan (for max (k/n, slew_rate) of speed step, there k is number or

My suggestion is not to use hard disk temperature to control fan speeds. When SpeedFan was more aggressive to slow down fan speeds, the result was oscillating speeds.

I don't see any problem.

Just raise the temperature for the disk sensor or uncheck the sensor for this fan like Alfredo said. Speedfan allows 3 different speeds for every fan and all temperatures can be adjusted freely. I can't think of any scenario that would require a change in the current logic.
