For me it's /sys/devices/system/windfarm.0/hd-temp

It also seems that the windfarm module misdetects my system. From dmesg:

Liquid cooling pumps detected, using new algorithm !
windfarm: failed to attach ds1775 hd-temp to i2c

And it for sure is not a liquid cooled model, the 2.0's never were.
(PM7,3)

I think this is a 2.6.16-rc2 with the cpufreq patches, but I seems to
have lost the source tree to verify for sure.
