[QUOTE="LondonMacUser, post: 1727831, member: 381879"] Hi Travis, Thanks for replying, my point was that the fan control software touted as a solution by others doesn't actually control the fan at all... so I was speculating as to that being an unplugged cable that was accidentally removed during the install? I'm pretty sure the replacement HDD I have won't have had the sensor on it, so I was hoping to fix via a software override for the fan setting... I could trying getting that sensor like you say, but I'm not sure that would work on it's own, as it feels like the fan isn't being controlled properly anymore as the override software doesn't have any effect... thanks!
