[QUOTE="hughvane, post: 1916397, member: 56231"] Thank you Randy, will download that Utility. I might add that the Mini can get quite noisy with its own fan at full speed, but it doesn't bother me much because the USB fan is noisier. I'm more concerned with the temperature of the top face of the Mini on hot days. Being coloured black, it has a high heat transfer potential, but there are occasions when the generated heat cannot escape readily, and I think the internal Mini fan is being overworked. Hence the external fan. [/QUOTE]
