Thermocouples for HDD?

[Magnusfarce]

I would like to monitor the temperature of one or more of the HDD's on my
rig. Are there any kits available to do this (I'm guessing two or three
TC's tied to a PCI card, maybe?)

Try a freeware utility like SpeedFan. The hard drive is already
reporting temperature through its firmware. Most BIOS track the
temperature.

If you have newer HD's that support S.M.A.R.T., you may not need
thermocouples.

Thaks for the help, fellas. These drives are pretty new stuff, so I'm sure
they will be equipped as you described.
