Happy new year, folks! Santa brought me a new TrueNAS Mini E (8gb) for Christmas, and I filled it with four Seagate Ironwolf 6TB drives (ST6000VN0033). However, I'm seeing unusually high drive temperatures that are starting to worry me. The two drives in the middle are reaching 49 C at times, while the top and bottom drives are getting to 44 C and 42 C. I've verified this through the System -> View Enclosure option in the web GUI, as well as with the smartctl command in the terminal.
Any ideas on how to cool these drives down? I can't find any setting in the web GUI or the IPMI for this system to increase fan speed, and I think there's only one CPU fan and one rear case fan. I'm worried that these drives are running too hot and will have a much shorter lifespan.
Some relevant info:
4x Seagate Ironwolf 6TB drives ST6000VN0033-2EE110
TrueNAS Mini E
Intel(R) Atom(TM) CPU C3338 @ 1.50GHz
8 GB ECC RAM
[enclosure is in a room-temperature basement during winter]
Thanks!
