First time post - please be gentle ;)
I am trying to build a Mac Pro 2008 FreeNAS system but I have come across a show stopper issue for me. During the FreeNAS start up process the fan's in this system get to what seems "full speed" (very loud) and they do not change.
I did find some software (mbpfan - https://github.com/dgraziotin/mbpfan) that could potential solve my issue but I do not have the knowledge and experience to test it. This utility doesn't have a pre-built version for FreeBSD so I tried to run up a Virtual Machine with FreeBSD 11.2, but I get an error when I try to build the tool. Hit the limit of my current skills.
Before I continue down this path any further I was wondering if anyone has built a FreeNAS system with this type of hardware and whether they have come across this issue? If so, how did they deal with the fans running at 100% - software tool/sound proof enclosure/sledge hammer:p?
Any information feedback would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
