[QUOTE="plat, post: 778465, member: 74969"] Can I add a thought? I mean, I pick up scraps of info here and there and some work, some don't, and I only stick to the very basic hardware stuff. Here is a PC but the only internal drive is an M2 and I kvetched about one sensor long ago reading relatively high, sometimes approaching 60 deg C under load. So, I put a heatsink on the Samsung EVO 960. The cost of this part was 13.00 USD but I saw some others (thicker) for 10.00 USD. Here is before and after just with regular use of browsing. directly before heatsink: [spoiler][ATTACH=full]202210[/ATTACH][/spoiler] directly after: (radiator kicked on so I can't precisely duplicate ambient temp but even so) [spoiler][ATTACH=full]202213[/ATTACH][/spoiler] Is something like this available for a high-end laptop, maybe (certainly a consideration for a PC)? The heatsink dimensions are 22mm/80mm for the NVM=e. I know things are much hotter already in a laptop but dust/dirt buildup also.
