Memory: We recommend at least 8 GB of RAM for browsing the web and handling basic productivity tasks.With the exception of our budget contenders and the Mac mini, all the mini PCs in our test group have a midrange 12th-generation Intel processor. Processor: A mini PC needs a processor powerful enough to handle basic web browsing, light photo editing, and any office programs you use.HDD Fan Control works to fix this issue by reading the drives internal temperature using the S.M.A.R.T protocol and set the fans actual speed to a value good to protect the drive. Instead of HDDFan Control, get the free SSDFan Control It runs at startup and continually to always control the fan correctly, prevent the loud fan noise and protect the drive from overheating These programs will not work for this particular issue as they often only control the base speed, and if they do control the fans actual speed they rely on the temperature reported by the sensor which is now incorrect.
Using smcFanControl and the terminal to set a MAX speed for the fan and writing scripts to start this after every sleep/restart.Resetting the SMC (System Management Controller) will have a temporary effect, but again the fan will speed up.įixes people have used in the past included: If you replace your drive, your iMac will initially seem fine, but soon the fan will begin to speed up to full speed. This is due to Apple replacing the external Hard Drive temperature sensor with a proprietary firmware and using the drives internal sensor. Replacement drives do not contain the firmware to deliver temperature data on the temperature sensor cable. When the iMac does not receive a good signal from the hard drive it puts the fan at full speed to protect the drive. Since the late 2009 iMacs came out, replacing the hard drive has caused the internal Hard Drive Fan to start running at around 6000RPM. Hi, likely the new Drive doesn't have the Termal sensor.
