I had sensors working in 18.04 but having difficulties with 20.04
I installed sensors and ran sensors-detect selecting the default choices.
I would appreciate the opportunity to learn what I need to do next.
Thanks.

And my hardware info. Not sure if you need other info.

Trying some other things suggested by some members:
E: Package 'hddtemp' has no installation candidate
I tried this to install hddtemp.
I tried this
sudo apt update wget
http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/h/hddtemp/hddtemp_0.3-beta15-53_amd64.deb
sudo apt install ./hddtemp_0.3-beta15-53_amd64.deb and got Download is
performed unsandboxed as root as file
'/home/andy/hddtemp_0.3-beta15-53_amd64.deb' couldn't be accessed by
user '_apt'. - pkgAcquire::Run (13: Permission denied)
I ran sensors-detect.
Some Super I/O chips contain embedded sensors. We have to write to
standard I/O ports to probe them. This is usually safe.
Do you want to scan for Super I/O sensors? (YES/no):
Probing for Super-I/O at 0x2e/0x2f
Trying family `National Semiconductor/ITE'... No
Trying family `SMSC'... No
Trying family `VIA/Winbond/Nuvoton/Fintek'... No
Trying family `ITE'... Yes
Found `ITE IT8620E Super IO Sensors' Success!
(address 0x228, driver `it87')
Probing for Super-I/O at 0x4e/0x4f
Trying family `National Semiconductor/ITE'... No
Trying family `SMSC'... No
Trying family `VIA/Winbond/Nuvoton/Fintek'... No
Trying family `ITE'... No
Some systems (mainly servers) implement IPMI, a set of common interfaces
through which system health data may be retrieved, amongst other things.
We first try to get the information from SMBIOS. If we don't find it
there, we have to read from arbitrary I/O ports to probe for such
interfaces. This is normally safe. Do you want to scan for IPMI
interfaces? (YES/no):
Probing for `IPMI BMC KCS' at 0xca0... No
Probing for `IPMI BMC SMIC' at 0xca8... No
Some hardware monitoring chips are accessible through the ISA I/O ports.
We have to write to arbitrary I/O ports to probe them. This is usually
safe though. Yes, you do have ISA I/O ports even if you do not have any
ISA slots! Do you want to scan the ISA I/O ports? (yes/NO):
Lastly, we can probe the I2C/SMBus adapters for connected hardware
monitoring devices. This is the most risky part, and while it works
reasonably well on most systems, it has been reported to cause trouble
on some systems.
Do you want to probe the I2C/SMBus adapters now? (YES/no):
Using driver `i2c-piix4' for device 0000:00:14.0: AMD Hudson-2 SMBus
Next adapter: SMBus PIIX4 adapter port 0 at 0b00 (i2c-0)
Do you want to scan it? (yes/NO/selectively):
Next adapter: SMBus PIIX4 adapter port 2 at 0b00 (i2c-1)
Do you want to scan it? (yes/NO/selectively):
Next adapter: SMBus PIIX4 adapter port 3 at 0b00 (i2c-2)
Do you want to scan it? (yes/NO/selectively):
Next adapter: SMBus PIIX4 adapter port 4 at 0b00 (i2c-3)
Do you want to scan it? (yes/NO/selectively):
Next adapter: SMBus PIIX4 adapter port 1 at 0b20 (i2c-4)
Do you want to scan it? (yes/NO/selectively):
Next adapter: Radeon i2c bit bus 0x90 (i2c-5)
Do you want to scan it? (yes/NO/selectively):

Do you want to scan it? (yes/NO/selectively):

Do you want to scan it? (yes/NO/selectively):
Next adapter: Radeon i2c bit bus 0x94 (i2c-9)
Do you want to scan it? (yes/NO/selectively):
Next adapter: Radeon i2c bit bus 0x95 (i2c-10)
Do you want to scan it? (yes/NO/selectively):
Next adapter: card0-VGA-1 (i2c-11)
Do you want to scan it? (yes/NO/selectively):
Now follows a summary of the probes I have just done.
Just press ENTER to continue:
Driver `it87':
* ISA bus, address 0x228
Chip `ITE IT8620E Super IO Sensors' (confidence: 9)
Driver `k10temp' (autoloaded):
* Chip `AMD Family 15h thermal sensors' (confidence: 9)
Driver `fam15h_power' (autoloaded):
* Chip `AMD Family 15h power sensors' (confidence: 9)
To load everything that is needed, add this to /etc/modules:
#----cut here----
# Chip drivers
it87
#----cut here----
If you have some drivers built into your kernel, the list above will
contain too many modules. Skip the appropriate ones!
Do you want to add these lines automatically to /etc/modules? (yes/NO)
Unloading cpuid... OK
