fit-pc2 Temperature

[nachoang]

Is it normal that the equipment warms up very much?

[yogev_ezra]

Yes. Fit-PC2 has no fans so the aluminum case is used as passive cooler.

In spite of it I must not worry my truth

I have just hung the tiny 5 Volt fan from my 4801, and even though the airflow is tiny, the case cools down to almost room temperature.

When I have updated the Bios from the March 2009 one the machine was delivered with I will update with some 'fan' and 'no fan' temperatures

update 20091029:
still can't get CPU temp sensor to work, even with latest BIOS, but the measurement from disk temp sensor is as follows (very lightly loaded machine, only serving 10 web pages a day)

after 12 hours without fan - 39 degrees
with fan - 34 degrees

the case temperature difference is much bigger than this (<<30 degrees with fan)
