ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a data processing apparatus having temperature sensors, at least one fan for cooling the data processing apparatus, and a monitoring unit connected to the temperature sensors and to one or more fans. The monitoring unit controls the fans as a function of measured values from the temperature sensors. The data processing apparatus also includes at least one hard disk that has a temperature sensor. According to the invention, the data processing apparatus is characterized in that an interface apparatus is provided for checking the hard disk temperature sensor or sensors and for supplying the measured temperature values for the monitoring unit.
