I was just curious what people have for temps and what is considered "safe". I just upgraded from 2 250GB seagates to 2 1TB green WDs. I also upgrade from like 1.03 to 1.06. My old temps were around 40-43C. They would get hot when active (43) and low when sleeping (40). Silly me, I thought that moving to the green drives would make things better, but its much hotter now. Also, there's no rhyme or reason. When idle, I get 47, when active for 2 mins or less it's 43C, more it's 44C....really weird. It might be related to the new fan control mods in the newer firmware, but I don't know. Can someone shed some light on this? Oh, also, ambient temps don't seem to make much difference. It runs between 76-78F in the room where the NAS is located..
Thanks for your responses in advance..
Oh, and is the NAS reading the case temp or the drive temp? Just curious..

I have 2x 500 GB Green WS and temperature is about 40-43 C. I have a script which watches the temp as starts/stops the fan. Sometimes the temperature rises even with disks idle.
Also I think that the reported temperature is not ambient, but the temperature of some component (chip on the mainboard)... because with 40 C ambient temperature the disks should had more than 50 C... and they aren't so hot
