[QUOTE="harryb2448, post: 1789056, member: 42497"] Fan Control software is generally designed to stop the iMac fans going full bore after replacing a hard drive and not using the therma; kit such as OWC's heat sensor kit. For mine anything that interferes with the Macs inbuilt hardware can cause problems by having the fans run too slow, or even too fast. Have used originalLC's, Performa 480, 5200, 5300, 5600 Directors Special, G3 Bondi Blue iMacs, 350Mhz iMacs, G4 towers from 400MHz to 1.42GB MDD, Dual Core G5's, Mac Pros, mid 2011 iMac, late 2013 iMac and 2016 iMac, as well as notebooks, with never a fan control needed.
