Will HDD Fan Control work on the optical drive

I am looking to replace JUST the optical drive with an SSD - will HDD Fan Control work in this scenario as well? Also, if I really go crazy I might just replace both drives with SSDs - what about that situation? My iMac is a late 2009 (model 10,1).
You are in luck! If you just replace your optical drive you do not need HDD Fan Control, the optical bay has a separate external temp sensor you can stick on the SSD you install. If you replace your HDD you will need HDD Fan Control as the late 2009 models do not have external sensors for the HDD.
