Do I have a hard drive problem here?
Just upgraded to OS6.5.0. I have noticed that the information about my installed drives is incomplete. Not sure if this is a problem or a cosmetic issue. I have tried doing a <ctrl>F5 to refresh ...

All drives have the same firmware. I have just checked again - now not getting temps from any of the drives.It could be a ReadyNAS bug. I've seen similar behavior in the past, but only with WD30EFRX. Currently I'm using larger drives (WD60EFRX and WD80EZRX), and they aren't showing that symptom.
The good news is that the WD30EFRX runs cool, so you shouldn't have thermal issues even if the temps aren't detected. I agree it would be nice if it were taken care of.

Sometimes the temps aren't reported - not sure if there's a bug in the ReadyNAS firmware or if its in the drive firmware. Perhaps take another look later.
