The sensor is located on the case (not near the exhaust) of the server. With the structure of my appartment this is the only place I can realistically put my Server but sadly also the hottest place in my appartment.
The outside temperature is supposed to reach 36°C today so I expect the ambient temp for the server to rise another 2-3 degrees.
This is less about the increase during the last 24 hours and more about the current temp+expected increase.
My fileserver regularly ‘enjoys’ 45-50c during the day when I’m not home in summer.
Aircon isn’t cheap to run, so everythings getting fried while I’m at work (getting fried since we don’t have AC at work)
I’ll make you feel better: here’s a server of mine that lives in a hot garage. Sorry for the freedom units but it peaks at about 55C.
20F isn’t much of a fluctuation anyway.
Oh lordy, please tell me it’s at least not humid in there?
Nah, pump the humidity. Free sauna!
