+# Hard drive temperature monitoring with Netdata
+
+Monitors disk temperatures from one or more `hddtemp` daemons.
+
+**Requirement:**
+Running `hddtemp` in daemonized mode with access on tcp port
+
+It produces one chart **Temperature** with dynamic number of dimensions (one per disk)
+
+## Configuration
+
+Edit the `python.d/hddtemp.conf` configuration file using `edit-config` from the Netdata [config
+directory](/docs/configure/nodes.md), which is typically at `/etc/netdata`.
+
+```bash
+cd /etc/netdata # Replace this path with your Netdata config directory, if different
+sudo ./edit-config python.d/hddtemp.conf
+```
+
+Sample:
+
+```yaml
+update_every: 3
+host: "127.0.0.1"
+port: 7634
+```
+
+If no configuration is given, module will attempt to connect to hddtemp daemon on `127.0.0.1:7634` address
