![]() Not sure I particularly like or recommend the idea of messing with the actual fan control, but it appears to provide access to the sensors. Really surprised Apple does not provide this information, but it must exist if the third parties can access it. So far, I cannot find a simple way to monitor the temperatures without installing a third party app. ![]() It appears the mini has three internal temperature sensors. You might find that the Mac Mini is normally operating very close to the temperature where it revs up the fan, and running high usage applications is just enough to go above the trip point. You probably do not have to monitor each configuration for long based on the fact the fan revs up fairly quickly under load (I assume). My approach would be to get access to the internal temperature sensors and monitor them under different conditions (basic editing, video editing), fully enclosed and lying flat first, then with bottom panel removed, and then in your stand. ![]() Removing panels, and standing the mini on its side sound great, but you really have no idea how that has affected the internal temperature other than the sound of the fan and how long it runs.
