Default Hard Drive Temperature Guaging Program? :)

Greetings,

I am looking for a program that can give me the temperatures of 4-5 hard drives at the same time. I have tried PC WIZ and another prog, both of which only showed two of my hard drives.

Four SATA drives are plugged in right now, 2 of those 4 are in a RAID 0.

I'm thinking about getting a new case. My graphics card runs 60-65 DC IDLE at 100% fan speed (8800 GTS EVGA). I don't want my hard drives running too hot...

Anyone know of a program that would let me my hard drive temperatures (if one even exists)?


Thanks!


Douglas

Hmm...This program still only shows two hard drives.

I have:

2 Raptor 74 GB's in RAID 0 (sata)

1 250 GB Hitachi
1 500 GB hitachi

This speed fan prog, along with all other progs so far, only shows 2 hard drives.

Any ideas? Would the RAID 0 Drive not show up correctly? I never installed drivers for it. Seemingly has been working flawlessly.

Thanks!

Hey,

Does your drive appear in the supported list here: SpeedFan's supported hard disks ?

I think so... The hard drives all the temperature programs AREN'T detecting are the WD 74GB Raptors. They are in RAID 0. Any programs out there that can understand raid-0 and give me temperatures for both 74 GB raptors?


Thanks,


Douglas

nobody knows how to achieve a temperature reading with a RAID 0 set?
