ReadyNAS Pro: System temp running out of spec
In the last weeks I did have several times where the CPU temp ran out of spec. What's annoying to me is that the cpu fan runs at maximum 1506 rpm?! Shouldn't it rotate much higher to avoid temp runnin...
Started getting warnings in the past 24 hours for Temp 1 going over threshold. I'm running 4.2.13 final on a Pro Biz. The sys fan runs <1000 RPM most of the time and no amount of recalibration helps other than to verify the fan goes up in RPM and then settles to 900 or so. I was beginning to think this was normal until someone on Twitter pointed out this thread. There was a fair amount of dust in the unit that I blew out and that helped slightly but Temp 1 still overs around 62C. I powered up my spare Pro Biz with 4.2.13 and it too shows the sys fan running < 1000 RPM (was 1800 for a few minutes after powering it up) and Temp 1 is close to the threshold.
Oddly enough, while typing this, my primary Pro Biz sys fan stepped up to 1550 RPM and Temp 1 is 56C. No clue what triggered it to increase RPM other than perhaps seeing the 2nd was on (linked to the other to provide UPS info). I turned the 2nd off but the fan has stayed steady at 1577RPM for the last 10 minutes.
(Edit: Turned off the 2nd Pro Biz, 1st sys fan dropped to <1K RPM within minutes. But turned on 2nd again and I think it was coincidence. Both are reporting sys fan RPM < 1K and Temp1 @ 64 and 65C. Reverting to 4.2.11 if I have it.)
(Edit #2: While downloading 4.2.11, noticed BOTH of my Pro Biz were running >1700RPM on the sys fan and dropping to 56C. Ok. I'll have to play with this some more.)
