I took a screen shot of the temperature values after the unit had been running for 30 minutes and it was already 62C. See attached.
My pro-6 (running 4.2.x) is showing 57C system temps at the moment, and that is a typical value in a 4.2.x system. Perhaps other folks running OS 6 on their pro-6 or ultra-6 pro some input on their temps. The temp sensors are different on the 2 and 4 bay units (and also ultra 6).
I'm not sure how much to trust that particular reading. How hot is the air being vented from the back? Any signs that the system board is actually hot?
Also, any sign that the chassis fan isn't working properly?
My Ultra 6 Plus, which identifies itself as a Pro 6 Business Edition, runs 6.9.3 and has upgraded CPU and RAM. It is currently resyncing during vertical and horizontal expansions. System temperature is 59º C, CPU 41º C, and drives 33-38º C. These temperatures are typical during the summer in a bedroom-sized room kept in the upper 60s nights to lower 70s days (ºF) with a whole house evaporative cooler.
