Getting MBM to display HD temps?

Seems to me I remember a special procedure for doing this. I want the dashboard to display the temps of two drives that have smart sensors.

Speedfan will read the temps of these drives without doing anything special.
 
Start MBM application
Open MBM Settings dialog
Select General settings
Scroll down and select "Scan for IDE harddrives with temp sensors..."
Select Apply
Close MBM settings dialog
Stop MBM application
Restart MBM application
Open MBM Settings dialog
Select Temperatures
Look at list under "Should display board sensor"
You see your drives there
You can add these to the dashboard and/or system tray

For example, after I have done this I see listed:
Maxtor 6L200R0[0], which is 200GB Maxtor on IDE1 Master
Maxtor 6Y160P0[1], which is 160GB Maxtor on IDE1 Slave
aMtxro7 2Y050P[2], which is 250GB Maxtor on IDE3 Master (PCI controller)

I have added these as MBM 5 Sensors 4, 5, and 6
