I recently obtained an HP ProLiant DL580 G7 without any
            HDDs so I went ahead and installed an SSD which works great and the other day I ordered
            a 2.5" SATA 2 TB HDD (ST2000LMB15).
After
            installing the new SATA drive, one of the temperature sensors on the servers (sensor 17)
            has seemingly jumped up to 47 degrees Celsius, the exact temperature necessary for the
            fans to increase their speed in an endless cycle until they hit their maximum speed
            (this is loud, WAY too loud!).
After removing
            the drive, the sensor magically returns to its normal 35 degrees Celsius temperature and
            the fan speeds begin to return to their normal
            speeds.
I have found a             href="https://community.hpe.com/t5/ProLiant-Servers-ML-DL-SL/DL580-G7-overheat-temperature-sensor-17/m-p/6912986/highlight/true#M155369"
            rel="nofollow noreferrer">thread where two different people seem to run
            into this same issue but no solution was ever posted. At this point, I'm assuming that
            the HDD is reporting incompatible or incorrect data to the server and ultimately causing
            this annoying issue.
Right now, the
            only solution I see is to replace the drive with an enterprise SAS drive, but I wanted
            to check with the people here first to see if anyone has experienced this issue (or
            anything similar) before.             href="http://rads.stackoverflow.com/amzn/click/B00512JC5G" rel="nofollow

            with.
