I've made a template to query hddtemp deamon and graph disks temperature. Tested with cacti 0.8.6h on fc5, debian and gentoo. It uses only php core functions, no extra librairies are needed.

INSTALLATION :

• Install and configure hddtemp daemon
• Test it with "telnet <host> 7634" from your cacti box
• Output should be similar to :

"|/dev/hda|IBM-DJNA-371350|47|C||/dev/hdc|Maxtor 6Y080L0|44|C|"

• Copy hddtemp.xml to resources/script_queries directory
• Copy hddtemp.php to scripts directory
• Import template file cacti_template_linux_hddtemp_disk_temperature.xml
• Add "Linux - hddtemp - disk temperature" data query to your host
• Create new graph for this host and select disks

GROUPING GRAPHS :
If you want to group several disks on the same graph :

• Import cacti_graph_template_linux_hddtemp_disk_temperature_2x.xml or cacti_graph_template_linux_hddtemp_disk_temperature_9.xml templates
• Create a graph for each disk as described above
• Create a graph for your host using 2x or 9x template, let fields empty
• Edit the graph and select data sources previously created
• You can delete single-disk graphs but not data sources

NOTE : You need exactly 2 or 9 disks, or you'll have to modify the template.
