on my old setup
the michine will not run if the physical button is pressed.
but i coluld pres the software estop to kill the michine.

in the new build i can not press the software button. it is only a reflection of the physical button.

Both of those versions can be correct.

What switches does the machine have on Z?

Hard drives dont like cold.

True, but i would venture a guess that up to -5C should still be OK on older drives and 0C on new-ish drives. Never tested, though as SSD are not so sensitive and i do not have HDD to test with.
I think 5 to 45C is their normal working environment temperature, but fast ones do get hot while working.

Yes, there are instances when it is very useful, but not on simple/hobby/small machines, and especially not for beginners.
