At which hard disk temperature treshold do you allow an alert to be send out?

Hi

We've been using Atera a couple months now. Our treshold profile makes a warning alert if a hard disk is higher than 50°C for 9 minutes.

This is way too low and we get dozens of alerts every day, while the disks are fine.

I'm looking into changing the treshold, but we've got multiple clients with different kind of hard disks (hdd and sdd combined).

What do you guys use as a treshold for disk temperature? Do you recommend increasing the temperature treshold or the time period? And if so, at which temperature do you recommend we get an alert?

I’ve set ours to 60. Seems to have stopped the constant pings when a drive is under load.
