May 29, 2020 Set any constant value to any fan (e.g., minimum) Control fan speed in relation to a temperature sensor (e.g., 3rd party HDD) Real-time monitoring of Mac's fans speed and temperature sensors including 3rd party HDD/SSD (using S.M.A.R.T.) Custom fan preset (in Pro version) Configurable menu bar icon. (The new SSD drive doesn't support it) To solve this issue, I installed a software called 'Macs Fan Control' that can read out the temperature from the SMART status of the drive and control the fan speed itself. This was a near-perfect solution until I upgrade my system to macOS Sierra.
Ssd Fan Control For Mac
iMac users who tweak their systems using 3rd party hard disks or solid state disks, are often surprised by an unpleasant aftermath: an annoyingly noisy hard disk fan. Fan management in Apple systems relies on temperatures reported by the SMC system. The SMC collects data from external sensors or by reading the internal hard disk temperature in a proprietary manner. Sometimes reusing the external sensor is not possible or, as in more recent generations of iMacs, replacing the original hard disk breaks the system’s temperature monitoring. In both cases the SMC system tends to go into frenzy and drive you mad with a loud fan.

SSD Fan Control puts you in control. It enables you to overrule the automatic fan control and manually configure the fan speed. The core of the system is a daemon that runs in the background and takes care of the fan management. Whenever the SMC system resets to its default, SSD Fan Control takes over again to make sure that your system remains quiet. Aside of this daemon, SSD Fan Control features a user-friendly application for monitoring and control.
