SMART reading with sata controller
 

Hey

I wonder if it is possible to read my temperature of the hdd attached to my sata controller (pci)

The card itself is a promise sataII tx2plus.

Atm I'm using MBM5 and I can't select the hdd's on the sata controller for temperature reading

no.

if your lucky.
I sometimes can read the S.M.A.R.T. data sata disk.

and he shattered my hope with 2 letters and a point :(

k, not like this was a problem, but I was just curious

this is my little file server; 4 drives connected through PCI cards, I get no read-outs from SMART :-/

if you do find a solution, please share :)

the dust :D

case is open 24/7 :) next to a window. Installed the PC like that on August 19 2003, haven't touched it since:)

Intel Stock HSF; nothing fancy and everything works :D

it's in a seperate storage room, can be as noisy as it wants :)
and P4 2.2Ghz does not get really hot

stressed 100% with Folding@Home: 35°C (room is ~19°C)
