Hard+drive+overheating


 * Hard drive overheating **

The answer is to install third-party monitoring software. Today’s essential download will sound a warning alarm if your hard drive overheats.

Hard drives have a range of temperatures in which they can operate safely, but if they get too hot it can lead to drive failures and data loss. Sadly although they have sensors there is no way to communicate it’s temperature to you, so you need an additional program such as :-

DiskAlarm can monitor the temperature, and if your PC does start to overheat, you will be able to turn the machine off and allow it to cool down.

The main interface shows you all of the connected hard drives, the temperature for each, and gives you tools to turn on alarms and change the warning sound used. With DiskAlarm, you should never be hit by another serious system crash caused by an overheating hard drive again!
