This program is supposed to monitor the internal temp of hdd's (if they are on the list of supported HDD)
http://www.siguardian.com/products/hddtemperature/index.html
My IBM 60 GXP (the only one that is supported by the program) is reported to have a temp. of 43 degrees celcius.
But I have a feeling that something is wrong:
After I tried the standard freeware hddtemperature thingy, I uninstalled it and tried the shareware Sigguardian that also has S.M.A.R.T monitoring capabilities. When I started the program it complained about the hddtemperature service not being started. Nevertheless the program opened and reported the same temperature as the HDDtemperature program had done before.
as Hamlet would have said it:
"Something is rotten in the Kingdom of (insert country here)"
Also I have never heard of thermistors in HDD. Am I being ignorant here?
Thanks
