# 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 --- [](<>)
