Publisher's Description
From Surtees Studios:
- Fixes iMac Fan Noise problem
- Stops the fan always running at full speed
- Allows HDD Fan to run at a speed related to Drive's temperature
- Does not need the Apple Temperature Sensor or Firmware
- No hardware modifications needed
- Protects Drive from Overheating
- Works with all HDD's & SSD's
Have you replaced your iMac's Hard Drive with a new HDD or a SSD and the fan has started running at full speed creating a lot of noise?
HDD Fan Control controls the fan speed in relation to the drive's temperature, slows the fan down preventing the loud noise and keeps your drive safe from overheating.
iMac HDD Fan Control does not require Apple's temperature sensor or cable to obtain the drives temperature as it uses the S.M.A.R.T (Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology) protocol built into all drives, this means you no longer need the temperature sensor or cable for the fan to operate correctly.

"This works if you replace the HDD in your iMac"
Version: HDD Fan Control 2.4
Pros
- Works. Does what is says it will do.
- Developers keep up with current OS X releases.Cons
- None. Used it for a year and have not had any problems.
Summary
This is the best solution if you replace the HDD in your iMac. For my 27", Late 2009 iMac the "use a CD ROM temp sensor trick" (replacing the proprietary OEM in disk sensor with the external one that is used on the CD ROM) did not work for me. This is the only solution that did.
