Upgraded PRO 6 to 6.5.1, had fan problems, went back to 6.5.0 and all is well again

I see that 6.5.2 final release is out. Has anyone upgrade and see if the fan issues reported in 6.5.1 were addressed?

I upgraded to 6.5.2. Nothing changed. Did NOT help. In 80% cases my NAS will not power off automatically.

I believe there is a fix for the fan issue in 6.6.0. As far as I can recall we didn't change anything relevant to the fan issue in 6.5.2.
As for the system not powering off automatically that suggests a different issue. Can you send in your logs (see the Sending Logs link in my sig)?
