iMac users who tweak their systems using 3rd party hard disks or solid state disks, are often surprised by an unpleasant aftermath: an annoyingly noisy hard disk fan. Fan management in Apple systems relies on temperatures reported by the SMC system. The SMC collects data from external sensors or by reading the internal hard disk temperature in a proprietary manner. Sometimes reusing the external sensor is not possible or, as in more recent generations of iMacs, replacing the original hard disk breaks the system’s temperature monitoring. In both cases the SMC system tends to go into frenzy and drive you mad with a loud fan.
The capability to manually adjust fan speeds and control a Macs fan system has been around for quite a while, and longtime readers may recall SMCFanControl from the original Intel MacBook line from back in 2007, and that tool still works on those older Macs, whereas Macs Fan Control functions on modern Macs. Add -vsmcrpt to report about missing SMC keys to the system log. Add -vsmccomp to prefer existing hardware SMC implementation if found. Add vsmcgen=X to force exposing X-gen SMC device (1 and 2 are supported). Add vsmchbkp=X to set HBKP dumping mode (0 - off, 1 - normal, 2 - without encryption).
- SSD Fan Control puts you in control. It enables you to overrule the automatic fan control and manually configure the fan speed. The core of the system is a daemon that runs in the background and takes care of the fan management. Whenever the SMC system resets to its default, SSD Fan Control takes over again to make sure that your system remains.
- 2 Fan control: Right (GPU) and Left (CPU) depending on CPU/GPU temperature; Main support: MacBook Pro Unibody. Other models: MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, Monitoring: Fans Speed, Temperatures (CPU, GPU integrated, GPU NVidia) Compatible with other SMC monitoring tools (version = 1.0.0) REQUIRES: Microsoft Visual C 2010 Redistributable Package.

SSD Fan Control puts you in control. It enables you to overrule the automatic fan control and manually configure the fan speed. The core of the system is a daemon that runs in the background and takes care of the fan management. Whenever the SMC system resets to its default, SSD Fan Control takes over again to make sure that your system remains quiet. Aside of this daemon, SSD Fan Control features a user-friendly application for monitoring and control.
