Individual Thresholds for Drives

Post by KOTR »

I have 4 drives on my PC - 1) C: which is a 1TB SSD, 2) D: a 2TB HDD, 3) E: another 2TB HDD, and 4) G: and external 1 TB SSD. I'm not a computer expert, but it's my understanding that an SSD runs hotter than the HDD's. In Configuration \ Thresholds, is there a way to set a different threshold for each of the drives, so that I can set a slightly higher threshold for the C: drive SSD?
Thank you for your response.

Of course, you can set individual thresholds for any hard disk drive or SSD.

Please check the Help for details and
https://www.hdsentinel.com/kb/category/ ... ature.html
as this page describes exactly this situation (available from Support -> Q&A Knowledge Base -> Solid State Drives, SSDs section)

To set custom Temperature thresholds, please select the Temperature page of any drive and in the upper right corner, you can use the "Set custom temperature thresholds".
To set custom Health thresholds, you can double click on the Health % bar of the Overview page of any disk drive.

This way Hard Disk Sentinel will use the custom thresholds to issue warning/alert.
