[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1727833, member: 56379"] Fan control software is not the solution. Like Dennis said in his post. You either need to replace the HD with exactly the same brand HD that it shipped with...or purchase the special cable from OWC. And since 2009 iMac's are 7 years old...the "same brand HD" may or may not still work. Thus the most pedendable solution is purchasing the special cable.:) - Nick [/QUOTE]
