2 What is the typical fans speed & max CPU temp.
I want to upgrade my HD on iMac 27" mid 2010 to a western Digital Black 4G.
Which will mean I will need a software fan control for my Mac.
It would be really nice to know the thresholds for fan speeds and max tentative so I can set up my fans and temps on the side of caution.
Many thanks in advance.

Awesome and Thanks in Advances - Kindly Simon

Can you give us the exact drive you are planning on putting in. Depending on what your system currently has you maybe OK, or at worse just need a different temp sensor cable that works with the drive you are planning on using.

I don't recommend fan control software when a hardware solution is available.
