Thing about this software on MPB is that the software looks at the hdd temp, which rarely gets above 35deg with the fan running at 1000rpm, cpu temps climb a little bit, but the speed doesnt increase as temp increases as the hdd temp stays fairly similar suffice to say its probably being removed (the software that is)
