It becomes very hot. As per my initial use it use somewhere between 60-70C but I've read someone measure it as high as 81C. I purchased a 1mm copper heatsink with thermal tape and attached it to this SSD. As per my measurement temperatures range from 34C to 46C. I've read somewhere 50C is still considered normal or acceptable. Note not purchase the 3mm heatsinks (the ones with fins) as they are designed for desktops. The 1mm copper heatsink fits perfectly on ,y HP Pavilion gaming laptop replacing the meatl bracket (with thermal paste) holding the old SSD.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Gets hot like so many other devices in this form factor. Purchase some thermal pads and you’ll be ok with a generic low profile aluminum heatsink.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Operating temps never even hit 70°c in the ASUS gaming ultrabook I tried it in, and that's not exactly a cool machine to begin with. I think it'd do fine in most laptops provided they have decent cooling, particularly since there's some onboard thermal management to help keep it from burning itself out.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I had to order an adapter because I only have one m.2 slot. The adapter came with a heat sink and I used it on my 980pro I ordered. After running a test, it never got above 2• Celsius.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.41C under load in my case (NZXT 510i); I don't imagine it would be an issue in a laptop
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I have not experienced it getting hot. i have it on full power mode and it is staying around 38 degrees, it bumps up some when I am doing a graphics test, but not when i am video editing or playing PUBG.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Unless your laptop has PCIe 4.0, it’ll be alright. I used it in a Ryzen 5500u laptop, which is Zen 2 architecture and PCI3 3.0, and it never got hotter than 42℃ under load.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes it does run a little hotter than a sata SSD being that is directly connected to the mother board.
