Please read everything first before doing the actual stuff!
I logged in as root: sudo -i
Then, from the thread above, I followed post #36 by 'gdw1963'.
However:
* I did not edit the .profile
* I created file S99fancontrol.sh in /volume1/@optware/etc/init.d/S99fancontrol.sh
Do note that running pwmconfig will overwrite the contents of /etc/fancontrol.
The contents of my /etc/fancontrol are:
# Configuration file generated by pwmconfig, changes will be lost
INTERVAL=5
DEVPATH=hwmon1=devices/platform/it87.656
DEVNAME=hwmon1=it8728
FCTEMPS=hwmon1/device/pwm1=hwmon1/device/temp2_input hwmon1/device/pwm3=hwmon1/device/temp2_input
FCFANS=hwmon1/device/pwm1=hwmon1/device/fan1_input hwmon1/device/pwm3=hwmon1/device/fan3_input
MINTEMP=hwmon1/device/pwm1=20 hwmon1/device/pwm3=20
MAXTEMP=hwmon1/device/pwm1=60 hwmon1/device/pwm3=60
MINSTART=hwmon1/device/pwm1=150 hwmon1/device/pwm3=150
MINSTOP=hwmon1/device/pwm1=70 hwmon1/device/pwm3=70
MINPWM=hwmon1/device/pwm1=70 hwmon1/device/pwm3=70
MAXPWM=hwmon1/device/pwm1=255 hwmon1/device/pwm3=255
As you can see I assigned the temp and fan monitors different than gdw1963 so the result of running sensors are:
It's summer now and the temperature outside is near 25 degrees C, inside it's a little cooler: 23 degrees C. The fans are NOT rotating at max speed.
Current disk temperatures (not shown but can be found in Storage Manager >HDD/SDD > Health info) are 34-35 degrees C.

I did not do the last steps, after the last 'shutdown -h now' I was done.
If everything turns out well your NAS reboots, fans are high and then after a while they go quiet.
Do note, that I have enabled Smart Fan Control in BIOS, I enabled it AFTER doing the pwm settings, first you just should have them enabled.:
Smart CPU Fan - Enabled
Start temp: 30 degrees C.
Smart AUX Fan - Enabled
Start temp: 30 degrees C.
Good luck!
Hi there. I have the same problem on thecus N5550. Everything is working properly, except for the fans that are working in full speed all the time.
Can you please help me fix it? I tried to follow your solution, but my files are different than yours. Please note that linux is not my strongest point :)
