M.2 SSD Heatsink for 2280 NVMe/SATA SSD

I bought this for my Samsung NVME 970 Evo Plus, after it hit 85C, during the performance benchmark. Slapped this on, at slightly higher ambient temps, and this heatsink brought that value down to 64C. In the image, the after is the top values. I used the metal clips, which went on fine. The way I secured them was to spread them outside the sides of the hs, positioned it where i wanted it, then pushed the clips in, and over the outside fins. They clip right in. Sliding them on didn't seem like a good idea, as it could scratch the bottom of the drive. I also stuck this on a WD Black SN750, but it wasn't in, before the hs came in. It's running at the same temps as the Samsung, but it only has one temp sensor, which seems to be the same type as Samsung's first value. I would definitely recommend these, as an easy way to bring down those crazy NVME temps, and maybe extend the life of the drive.

Attached the heatsink to my Roku Stick after it started overheating with out new Samsung TV. It never overheated with our other TV, but the new Samsung OLED seems to drive the Roku hotter. Since updating the TVs software and the Roku's software didn't fix the issue; I had to resort to plan-B. Adding this heatsink was relatively easy, even though the Roku is not flat. Enough of the heatsink made contact to bring temps down from 116C to 101C. Not as low as I'd hoped for, but the annoying message about my Roku overheating is gone. I'll probably buy another one to attach to the other side of the Roku to see if it can bring it down further.

Works as intended for single sided m.2 ssds. Lowered the temp by 12C and prevented throttling of my single sided Samsung 970 EVO Plus SSD. Only issue is don't use the rubber bands for permanent installation, only for temporary testing. The metal clips are what you use in real installations. Space out the metal clips to distribute pressure evenly not on the ends as depicted by pictures. They are metal clips so be careful with scratching the PCB of the ssd and make sure you don't short out anything of some cheaper drives. Insert from bottom don't slide it along the ssd. If SSD is double sided look for something else, not this.

I don't have a lot to compare this product to, but it was an easy install and seems to be working. This went into my Qnap TVS-882 NAS under the CPU cooler shroud, so the fins are getting direct blower cooling, which is a bonus.

This heatsink is mounted to ssd via use of 2 metal clips that wraps around and ends on back of memory stick's backside. On SSD, back is full of traces and vias, and all those are insulated by very thin coat of masking material. Scary thing is, the clip has sharp edges and tension is quite high that edges scrape off the insulating coating all the way down to copper trace. I applied kapton tape so that it won't short. It would be nice if this piece was made with strong heat resistant and NON CONDUCTIVE material. The kit does include rubber-band but I don't trust it enough to last.

I have a Samsung 970 Evo Plus as my primary drive inside a mini ITX case. The case itself is cramped and the SSD sits near the CPU. At idle my SSD reads about 65 degree Celsius. After installing this heatsink the temperature dropped to 45 degree C. I installed the thermal pad on TOP of the tamper-evident sticker on SSD as I didn't want to void my SSD warranty, so if you're willing to remove the sticker you'd likely get even more effective cooling. I highly recommend this to anyone who is worried about SSD temperatures.

My quiet case has very low airflow at the m.2 slot. Heatsink is Good for hi efficiency SSD or moderate intermittent workload or cases with massive airflow. With low airflow, a 970plus SSD overheated under load. Be aware that a 970plus SSD is not flat! You will need a very soft thermal pad or something to cool all chips.

I like the simplicity and was in the market to add a heat sink to my Samsung 980 M.2 SSD. Unfortunately the heat sink is a little too tall for the PS5 chamber plate.

My NVMe was running around 57 degrees Celcius regularly, and it was a bit concerning to see my normal HDDs running far cooler at <47 degrees Celcius max. I chose this heat sink because it had a large surface area and cooling fins, which is unlike most of the other flat sinks I see for sale. The price is fantastic and it's lowered my NVMe temperature by about 10 degrees. so happy I went to the effort of installing this!
