Description
|
||
|
|
-----------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This driver supports reporting the temperature of disk and solid state
|
||
|
|
drives with temperature sensors.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If supported, it uses the ATA SCT Command Transport feature to read
|
||
|
|
the current drive temperature and, if available, temperature limits
|
||
|
|
as well as historic minimum and maximum temperatures. If SCT Command
|
||
|
|
Transport is not supported, the driver uses SMART attributes to read
|
||
|
|
the drive temperature.
|
||

Usage Note
|
||
|
|
----------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Reading the drive temperature may reset the spin down timer on some drives.
|
||
|
|
This has been observed with WD120EFAX drives, but may be seen with other
|
||
|
|
drives as well. The same behavior is observed if the 'hdtemp' or 'smartd'
|
||
|
|
tools are used to access the drive.
|
||
|
|
With the WD120EFAX drive, reading the drive temperature using the drivetemp
|
||
|
|
driver is still possible _after_ it transitioned to standby mode, and
|
||
|
|
reading the drive temperature in this mode will not cause the drive to
|
||
|
|
change its mode (meaning the drive will not spin up). It is unknown if other
|
||
|
|
drives experience similar behavior.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A known workaround for WD120EFAX drives is to read the drive temperature at
|
||
|
|
intervals larger than twice the spin-down time. Otherwise affected drives
|
||
|
|
will never spin down.

Only the temp1_input attribute is always available. Other attributes are
|
||
|
|
available only if reported by the drive. All temperatures are reported in
|
||
|
|
milli-degrees Celsius.
