2011 iMac HDD Fan Speed


imac specs: 3.4ghz i7, 2gb vram, 16gb ram, 2tb hdd+256gb ssd

noticed hdd fan rpm's idling around 1174-1179 , when using aton of apps (ps5, dw5, itunes, mail safari, steam, firefox, open @ once) loaded around 1188-1195. go down.

after leaving machine off day let cool , maybe reconfigure temps, idles around 1199-1215 never reached temps, system hot @ , nothing running.

tried fan reset plugging power in while pressing power button didnt seem help.

1210rpm+ normal? seems idle @ spot , going more....occasionally see drop down 1189 few moments 1208~


other fans normal , when compared other similar imacs theyre same.

suggestions?
 

fan speeds between 900 1,300 @ idle normal. fan speeds above 3,000 rpms getting fast. rpms above 4,000 getting fast... if wondering, imac fan speeds between 1,000-1,200 , can barely hear them.
