mmm-it Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 Hello, I just read out a Samsung HDD Smart values with AIDA64 on a Windows 7 Enterprise Version System (64bit) and got some pretty high temperature values ... see attached image. Looks like a bug in SMART Value read out ? Also many of the other values look strange to me - whats your opinion ? Best regards MMM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fiery Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 That's normal. SMART data field for temperature values may or may not be a direct temperature readout (in Celsius). For some drives the lowest byte holds the temperature, and the rest of the bytes of the double-word value may hold minimum or maximum values too. In your case the data value is 2C0A0015 in hexadecimal, which would make it hold 3 temperatures: 44 Celsius, 10 Celsius and 21 Celsius. The lowest byte (21 Celsius) should be the current temperature value. Regards, Fiery Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
