During regular usage without Fan Control, the MBP is fine. It's just this recent prolonged period of 100% CPU usage.

@Gernot Yeah, I tried Fan Control. Fans spin up to 6k RPM, but CPU temp still creeps up past 100°C. Rest of the Temp sensors are fine.
Crap, the MBP keeps overheating (95-99°C) when pegging both CPUs. Auto shutdown once already, when it got to 100°C presumably...
BBQ dinner. Yum!
@fraserspeirs Awesome, congrats on the new car. You'll have to post how you like driving a hybrid...
@betizuka I was in Midland today and have been busy since then. I am going to try and give him a call back tomorrow. Sounds cool… enjoy!
@betizuka Really, what kind?
After a long time of no life outside of work, we're taking a few days here to catch up with projects around the house. Nice to take a break.

Another late night working...
I'll have to come back to this sometime later. Even though the NAS is slow, it would be cool to have a little embedded Linux box.
Still, there is an /etc on the disks. The hacker in me wants to try loading my own passwd, sshd, and others to override the flash versions.
Looks like most of the / filesystem (kernel, most of /etc, others) was in flash memory, not on the hard drives.
Hmm...the NAS was running Linux... mdadm --assemble --scan figured out the partitions and allowed me to mount them. Inspecting...
Moving 2 500GB drives from the NAS to a Linux box.
Hmm...4k messages in my spam box. time to empty this out.
@aaronvegh Congrats! Good luck on closing on the deal...
Computer store had "UV-sensitive SATA cables for $15, or I could just buy a normal one for $5. Guess which one I chose.
