FAN problem after upgrade from 4.2.28 to 6.5.0 T338
Hi All. My first post but been reading from many days. Recently i bought my Netgear NAS, that is RNDP6310-200 which is (by all signs) PRO6 v2, running 6xWD 2TB disks. On 4.2.28 temps were - CPU ...

OK, I see what's going on. Thanks for the logs. Strangely, your fan speed is drifting lower, without us ever adjusting it. It appears to be correlated with disk spindown, but I really don't know why that would have an effect. Anyway, we'll have a change in RC2 that should knock this out once and for all.

Hi, and thank you for the answer.
Yes, in fact I did. I went through all 3 modes:
quiet - makes yo-yo of the syetem fan and emails are sent every 20 minutes or so
balanced - I'd say less yo-yo, more tornado (comparing to the quiet mode), plus emails
cool - sounds like 5th class tornado - but not much drop in temperature reading (which is obvieusly false high), but no emails
This is all about system fan and temp reading.
CPU fan/reading seems to be fine and realiable.
It is probably worth to note, that emails are regarding fan speed being too low, not regarding temp.

Is there anything relevant to consider for other PRO 6 users who would want to upgrade from 6.4.2?
Many thanks in advance.
