Hard Drive Spindle Temp ???

[Paul Courchene]

Good Morning

I have a friend who is working on a project and they want to monitor the temperature
of a Hard Drive, while under test ... 

I understand that some hard drives have a capability called: “Smart Data”,
that records the spindle temperature. 

Are there any MS Windoze drivers that will monitor the Temp via Smart Data ?

Has anyone used this capability on a Linux Box ?
