For what it's worth: I use PID to control the fan speed of my DIY NAS.
It uses the temperature of the hottest drive to determine if it needs to spin up the fans or not. Works very very well.
The end result is an extremely quiet NAS even with 24 drives.

- carlob 7y agoI assembled a controller for my smoker from a cheap PID from aliexpress, a relay and a fan. It works like a charm and it's an order of magnitude cheaper than buying a complete solution.
