Surely there must be some such for FreeBSD, could someone point me > to them :-) ? TIA .... For watching the CPU temperature you've got coretemp(4) for Intel CPUs and amdtemp(4) for AMD CPUs. Both report their values through sysctl(8), and both can be loaded as modules. N.B: they're not built into the GENERIC kernel. Just kldload the appropriate module and then do `sysctl -a|grep temperature`. If you have an ASUSTeK motherboard, the aibs(4) driver gives information about temperatures, voltages and fan speed. You can use smartctl from the sysutils/smartmontools package to monitor the health of harddisks. The disk temperature is given as the attribute name “Temperature_Celsius” when you run `smartctl -a /dev/<disk>`. E.g. the sysutils/conky port can be used as a system monitor.
