SSD showing over temperature normal ?

joboy · 10-09-2023, 06:44 AM

I replaced the internal HD of my Lenovo T440P with a SSD, and I got this message on disk analyzer on Mint Debian edition, is this normal and because SSD lacks the temperature sensor ? everything worked fine despite the over temperature message and I don't feel the heat.

Have you tried lm-sensors package to pull temps from other components and get a second opinion on SSD temp? Not sure what is normal for SSDs but boiling water seems to be high. For CPUs, which have large cooling blocks, over 85C is high.

I would check the drive's SMART data via smartctl for temperature values. smartctl is part of the smartmontools package.

It already installed

lm-sensors is already the newest version (1:3.6.0-7)
I check the other drive which is internal SSD and it said disk is ok but no temperature reference, since the high temperature message does not reflect a real problem so I'll leave it for now.

As michaelk mentioned, checking the SMART data of the drive would be good. smartctl is in the smartmontools package.
