+How to monitor the temperature of a disk?
+-----------------------------------------
+
+By default, Psensor is using +hddtemp+ to retrieve the temperature of
+the disks.
+
+If +hddtemp+ is installed but no disk temperature is reported, check
+that the daemon is running by using for example the command +ps
+-eaf|grep hddtemp+.
+It should output something like:
+
+---------------------
+root 1433 1 0 May28 ? 00:00:21 /usr/sbin/hddtemp -d -l 127.0.0.1 -p 7634 -s | /dev/sdb
+---------------------
+
+Depending on the Linux distribution, the installation of the +hddtemp+
+package does not enable the hddtemp daemon automaticaly.
+
+In this case, edit the file +/etc/default/hddtemp+ and set
++RUN_DAEMON+ to +"true"+ like in the following example:
+
+------------------
+# hddtemp network daemon switch. If set to true, hddtemp will listen
+# for incoming connections.
+RUN_DAEMON="true"
+------------------
+
+For Debian/Ubuntu, you can use
+------------------
+dpkg-reconfigure hddtemp
+------------------
+
+and reply +yes+ when asked whether hddtemp daemon must be
+run during the startup.

Is there any other similar softwares?

+[[S_HideSensor]]
+Is it possible to hide sensors in the main window?
+--------------------------------------------------
+
+Before v1.1.1, the sensors retrieved from the lm-sensor library can be
+ignored directly in the lm-sensor configuration. See the manpage
+of sensors.conf(5).
+
+Since v1.1.1, it is possible to hide a sensor, uncheck the setting
+'Display sensor in the list of sensors' in the sensor preferences.
