I installed an ssd on my imac's superdrive.

i have a problem with the superdrive fan. I had the sensor sticked on the SSD but the fan's rpm stayed on 3200. i sticked the sensor on the case i used for the ssd and the rpms started low but after 2 hours they have reached 2000.

i read that i can short that cable but i dont understand how to do it. :S

any help?

I really doubt you should do that, just double check your steps and make sure you have done everything right.

why do u say that?it seems to be a solution adopted from many people..:confused:

although i shorted the two cables the problem wasnt solved. on the contrary the cpu fan went crazy as well. :S
