Hi August!

01 ï­¢ 23 10:38, August Abolins -> Wayne Harris:

 WH>> When I work in 31C, I am not very happy.  If your HDD is
 WH>> like me, then, yes, that's bad news for it. :-)  Happy new
 WH>> year.

 AA> I'm reading the following as common info:

 AA> "HDD Overheating Symptoms

 AA> "The normal temperature of a hard drive is from 40Cø to 50Cø
 AA> when it is in work. The temperature of HDD should not be more
 AA> than 70 Cø. An IDE hard drive is usually from 30 Cø to 50 Cø.
 AA> It probably causes data loss or even worse it may damage the
 AA> hard drive when its temperature is up to 100 Cø.

Meanwhile, the colder your drive is, the longer it will live. I try not to
warm my drives over 35øC.

[fido@brorabbit ~]$ sudo smartctl -a /dev/sda |grep -i temp

 AA> Further to my enlightenment:

 AA> C:\Documents and Settings\User>chkdsk
 AA> The type of the file system is NTFS.
 AA> Volume label is SYSTEM.

 AA> WARNING!  F parameter not specified.
 AA> Running CHKDSK in read-only mode.

 AA> CHKDSK is verifying files (stage 1 of 3)...
 AA> File verification completed.

[...skipped...]

 AA> Errors found.  CHKDSK cannot continue in read-only mode.

It only says that these files are currently open. This is normal. Try HDDscan.

Have nice nights.
