Nono, I dont mean that, I mean with a app like Dtemp ... then you can se the internal disk temp with the SMART function avalible on the disk.
Well VIAHM dosent support that, but thats cause they have no reason, MBM does, dont know about Probe. What I do know is that Dtemp and MBM does, and that it is a physical function inside the drive. And WD dotn have a tool what I have seen.
On the ibm on the otherhand the function is on, and I can se the temp, WD states that there is SMART functions in therir drives, and there is one to, but the temp seems to be diabled by some reason.
Ive mailed WD but I dont think that they will answer me on that...

Hehe, well, I dont use mbm, I use VIAHM but it sure is a nice app.
Actually MBM doesn't support reading temperatures from SMART enabled drives. However, there are 3rd-party plug-ins for it that will.
To check if your WD drive supports HD temperatures, I/we could really do with the model number.
HDDTemperature is a nice app. and has a list of known supported drives.
Hope this helps,

Well, I can say that a disk @ 60c is not good, the data may suffer then...
a normal disk runs at about 25-30, my ibm without a fan is at 40-45... I think my WDC is higher...

Well, I have tied up my disks at the 5.25 to, and got a 120 @ 5v sucking hot air from them, works good to...
