Asked 2 months ago by Aldz.

• A:Answer If you search youtube "msi think 14 teardown" it will show you how to install the NVMe and yes it does have a full sice NVMe slot that is compatible with this one.

Q: QuestionIs a heatsink even necessary if I install a 2TB version of this in my ASUS ROG G700? Or will the fans take care of it?

Asked 4 months ago by Pacer.

• A:Answer This NVMe is only a gen 4 so it wont get too hot. Passive cooling will work but a heatsink isnt a bad idea if youre able to have one for the storage drive. When you get into gen 5 speeds youll definitely need more that passive cooling to keep ot from melting.
