I already reported those drives to maintainer 4 months ago; by the mean time, I patched my local hddtemp.db myself, and all was fine until this week.

2 days ago, Gentoo did an update on this app, and I am very sad to see that upstream did not consider the serial ID I provided them.

Anyway, CLI provides clearly a WARNING, not an error, thus, I expect the daemon to provide readed values, and not stuck "UNK" when there is actually a value available.
