this is the part where i recommend just jumpering the sensor and everyone thinks i'm crazy.
I like the idea. I'm a big fan of duct tape and chewing gum repairs. So, you don't think there is any danger of overheating?
i'm sure you could find a hard drive that runs really hot but even then i think you'll be okay.
i recently put a 5TB drive into my imac. i should go home and look at the SMART status. however, its not my boot drive.
the fan cable has two wires going into a three pin connector. just find a small piece of wire to jumper the two active pins. done.
its hardly chewing gum and duct tap. just disabling an annoying sensor.
