I have two Raptors in a raid 0 array, and I'm having trouble trying to figure out how to get a program to monitor the temperatures. If anyone has any ideas, please tell, thanks.

I think Everest has harddrive monitoring software.

Yeah, other programs read my storage drive perfect, it's just when they are in a raid array, it doesn't seem like it wants to work.

The monitoring software must be able to communicate with the controller BIOS. Your storage drives use the generic ATA drivers, while your RAID array requires the monitoring software to traverse the RAID BIOS.to issue monitoring requests to the drives. If your RAID BIOS comes with monitoring software, that should allow you to access the SMART sensors on the disks, although it may not retrieve temperature data for you.
