readynas ultra6 fan speed
Hello, Got a readynas Ultra 6000, the system temprature is pretty high (81~82°C) and fan speed is low even when setting the speed to "Cool" 712rpm How can I increase the fan speed ? I chan...
I tried...
does not complain anymore with hi temperature but it remains weird... basically it is weirder than before. So, I reverted the changeo
Actually changing it wasn't what I had in mind as the first step, but it is interesting that yours isn't the same as the one in V6.9.6, which is where I got the one I posted. I was maining interested in checking that the temperature is being calculated right. So, what about the questions I asked? And in what way did the NAS behave "weird" when you swapped fan2 and fan3?
- Hello
When I replaced the configuration file with the one you provided, fan is not monitored anymore. (See picture attached to my previous post).
Regarding the temp pre-upgrade : I do not have any idea, I bought this NAS already upgraded to 6.10.4 on ebayOK, so it is new to you and you don't know if the fan ever worked right, correct? What about the air blowing out the unit? Does it seem to be as warm as the reported system temperature? And do the temperatures start up at room temp if the unit has been off for a while, or does either show too high or low?
Also, let's see exactly what the fan settiongs are. Enter this sequence of commands and post the responses:
#cd /sys/devices/platform/it87.2576/hwmon/hwmon1 #cat pwm1_enable pwm2_enable pwm3_enable #cat pwm1 pwm2 pwm3
Note that the red is what I think it should be based on the configuration file and what my other NAS do. If that's not the right directory, see if there is one similarly named. Or do a find -name pwm1 to find the right spot. Based on your config file, I expect them to be:
cat pwm1_enable pwm2_enable pwm3_enable0
3
0
cat pwm1 pwm2 pwm3128
(something <50)
128
But don't just go trying to change them, there's more to it than that. This is just checking the starting point.
