Hi!
I wonder which of the terabyte drives to buy for my CH3SNAS: The Samsung Spinpoint F1 HD103UJ 1TB or the Western Digital Caviar Green 1TB WD10EACS. I read that the WD drive is supposed to get less hot. Could anyone post his HDD's temp if he has one of the aforementioned drives? Disk temp, if possible, not the CH3SNAS's internal temp.
Best wishes!

Temperature depends a lot on harddisk use and environmental temperature, but with heavy use of 1 of the 2 WD GP drives and hot weather, the temperature never exeeds the 47 degrees in my CH3SNAS (with standard fancontrol).
edit: The 47 is the temperature indicated on the status page of the CH3SNAS. This is probably the temperature inside the box.

I gotta ask this - is that 47 degrees the disk temp or the internal temp

I got myself the WD HDD. Funnily enough, the NAS temp seems to be higher than the disk temp (S.M.A.R.T.). The CH3SNAS reports up to 41 °C, while the disks until now never showed more than 38 °C. Okay, it's autumn and not very warm...

how did you measure the disk temp in the ch3snas (not the reported device temp)

It seems that the dns323 produces a lot of heat by itself. I also have the WD green disks.
I do daily backups, so the left disk is normally spun down. With the right disk spinning, and the fan switched on, I get about 43° C on heavy operations (i.g. coping files to the NAS via 100mb link for about 3 hours). Normal operations temperature is about 41° C (with fan at about 2800 rpm)
With both disks spinning (only at night while backup is running), temperature normally does not exceed 42/43° C, because backup is running for about 15 Minutes only.
Maximum temp till now was 45°C after 3 hours heavy coping data from right to left disk.
Here is the interesting part: When both disk stop spinning, the NAS is cooled down to 38°C where the fan will stop (case is silent = night mode). Temperature will rise (with both disks not running) to about 41°C and stay there.
Room temerature is quite hot: 22 to 24°C (I have little children).

I too have little children, but 22-24 ??, you should raise the kids, not cook them... :
but back to my question, how can I read the disk temperatures inside the ch3snas (not the device temp)

My infant likes to crowl around a lot. So the floor should not be cold. As I have no floor heating, I have to heat the air.
PS: We are a little bit OT now...
