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...

Sorry to dig up this old thread, but I can't find anything more relavent in search.
I have a new ReadyNAS Pro 6 and I'm getting constant warnings regarding the Temp SYS hitting 66C. These are the current readings:
Device Description Status
Disk 1 WDC WD1003FBYX-01Y7B0 931 GB , 42 C / 107 F , Write-cache ON OK
Disk 2 WDC WD1003FBYX-01Y7B0 931 GB , 43 C / 109 F , Write-cache ON OK
Disk 3 WDC WD1003FBYX-01Y7B0 931 GB , 43 C / 109 F , Write-cache ON OK
Fan SYS 2250 RPM OK
Fan CPU 2109 RPM OK
Temp SYS 64 C / 147 F [Normal 0-65 C / 32-149 F] OK
Temp CPU 38 C / 100 F [Normal 0-85 C / 32-185 F] OK
What is the Temp SYS supposed to be measuring? I'm surprised to see a system temp higher than a CPU or HDD temp, since they're usually the source of the system's heat!
I should also point out that the air being pushed out from the side of the unit seems quite cool.
