Description YbbY 2010-08-25 14:33:26 UTC

the following line could be added to hddgentoo.db

"ST3500418AS"                                                   194 C "Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 SATA 500GB 16MB"

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. plug in a ST3500418AS HDD
2. use hddtemp on it
3. check result

Actual Results:  
hddtemp gives warnings :

# hddtemp /dev/sda
WARNING: Drive /dev/sda doesn't appear in the database of supported drives
WARNING: But using a common value, it reports something.
WARNING: Note that the temperature shown could be wrong.
WARNING: See --help, --debug and --drivebase options.
WARNING: And don't forget you can add your drive to hddtemp.db
/dev/sda: ST3500418AS:  34 C or  F



Expected Results:  
# hddtemp /dev/sda
/dev/sda: ST3500418AS: 34 C


as upstream seems hard to update , i think at least gentoo users could benefit from this thanks to the /usr/share/hddtemp/hddgentoo.db delivery

Thanks for submitting the drive info, but ST3500418AS is already in the Gentoo hdd database. Re-emerge hddtemp or run `update-hddtemp.db` to make sure your database is up to date.
