HDD Temperature Reading

any ideas what software to use to check the temp of my drives?

Tried a few online but none seem to be able to read them.

They are on a raid 0 and Speedfan used to be able to read the temps but now cannot since building the array.

In the bios there does not seem to be any enable smart disk etc.

They are just two Maxtor's.

had the same problem. always wanted to know. so i bought a fan control with temp readers on it. taped them to the harddrive.

its not perfectly accurate but it does the job.

sorry cant be more helpful

Sound!

I have an intel ich9r controller.
I know I can get readings without the array.

Been googling a bit but not much coming up..:cool:
