  • I think this is the historical low for a PCIE NVME-based 512GB drive.

    Mwave does sell a $179 ADATA XPG SX6000 drive with only 2 lanes as opposed to 4 lanes if anyone lives close enough to pick it up, but the WD Black is a good value drive at this price.

    I've upgraded to the Black from a Crucial BX100 and actually saw an improvement in boot times, which is pretty awesome. It does run kinda hot though (71 degrees constantly)

    • How long have you had your WD Black for?

    • Would a dram style heat spreader help?

        I doubt you can buy something like that without the RAM, but a few little heatsinks (and something to attach them) would do the job.

        Something like this https://www.jaycar.com.au/heatsink-pin-grid-array-with-adhea…

        Just took a look inside my case:

        the location of the drive is completely hidden behind the GPU, so when the GPU is stressed it will also blow hot air at the direction of the M.2 drive. Maybe a heatsink will only serve to trap more heat as it blocks airflow, because there is less than a 1cm gap between the GPU shroud and the drive.

        Oh well, solid state memory has very high heat tolerances so I'm sure 70~80 degrees isn't really much of a concern.

      If it is reporting 71 °C constantly. Then I think it is reporting incorrectly, instead of running that hot.

    Plus15 code works on this -$166.60 delivered.
