 (I used this with dell desktop machines, didn't work well with HP ZBook laptops) (from Speedfan site) SpeedFan is a program that monitors  voltages ,  fan speeds  and  temperatures  in computers with hardware monitor chips. SpeedFan can even access  S.M.A.R.T.  info and show  hard disk temperatures . SpeedFan supports  SCSI  disks too. SpeedFan can even change the FSB on some hardware (but this should be considered a bonus feature). SpeedFan can access  digital temperature sensors  and can  change fan speeds  accordingly, thus reducing noise. SpeedFan works fine with Windows 9x, ME, NT, 2000, 2003, XP, Vista, Windows 7, 2008, Windows 8,  Windows 10  and  Windows Server 2012 . It works with Windows 64 bit too.
