Cannot Monitor Temperature of HardDisk.
Hii..
I want to monitor the temperature of my HardDrives but i am unable to do so.
I have tried using HddTemp (*www.hddtemp.com)
It says "We cant find in your system any hard drives supports temperature"
other softwares are also unable to monitor.
I am using Vista.
HDD Models are ST3160827AS and ST3250824AS
My Bios shows that my HDDs supports SMART mode.
Earlier when i was using XP it used to show the temperature.
Whats the Problem..pls Help.
Try HDTune or SpeedFan.

Is there no one with the Solution??
Hmmm.... Does your PC motherboard has nVidia chipset? It seems that nVidia chipset PCs running Vista have some issues regarding S.M.A.R.T. You may want to check these threads:
