The SATA temperatures are fine and reported like this here too, just
the nvme ones are strange.

drivetemp-scsi-4-0
Adapter: SCSI adapter
temp1: +28.0°C (low = +1.0°C, high = +61.0°C)
(crit low = +2.0°C, crit = +60.0°C)
(lowest = +16.0°C, highest = +31.0°C)

drivetemp-scsi-12-0
Adapter: SCSI adapter
temp1: +29.0°C (low = +1.0°C, high = +61.0°C)
(crit low = +2.0°C, crit = +60.0°C)
(lowest = +18.0°C, highest = +32.0°C)

and so on.

Btw, where I can find the code does these calculations?
