HDX internal temperatures

Posted by: sktn77a on 13 October 2011

I noticed the fan on my HDX was rather noisy today and looked at the internal temperature readouts (under "System Status").  They were 49-51 degrees (Celcius).  Is this typical or is this a little high?

Mine 46-47 degrees, so no need to worry...

Thanks Michael;  does you fan come on at those temps?

Just checked the HDX thermal modelling white paper - it says the system is designed to work up to 26 degrees with passive cooling after which the fan comes on.  Then they say that the drives are spec'd for up to and above  (whatever that means - is it up to or is it above?) 40 degrees.
