Hmmm…??? And I don't think it's the small glass of my dry red wine I'm enjoying, but I'll be damed if those "upgrade" links were there previously, and they can't be just my Safari history as they show on my wife's 24" iMac as well.

It's an OWC conspiracy to confuse Macintosh users in Brentwood Bay, BC, Canada…who also happen to be Mac-Forums members…and who also happen to enjoy a nice glass of dry red wine from time to time!!!;) lol

Yup!! It's just a mind boggling conspiracy as to how all the coincidental events just happened to coincide. Almost as if the stars were in some special alignment, a conspiracy to be sure… ;)

Yeah, the temperature sensor was recommend by a lifehacker article ( I had to find it on the OWC site) to prevent the fans from being on high speed all the time. I followed the instructions exactly as they recommended, however the instructions are Apple model specific not hard drive specific.

Customer support acknowledged that this can be an issue, if you place the OWC sensor on the spindle (as the video instructs) it can stick too far out on some hard drives and cause issues.
