## Description

Experience lightning-fast speeds with this high-performance PCIe Gen5 SSD. The premium white heatsink ensures optimal thermal management for sustained performance.

Review: Fast and Hot - great performance and very fast, but beware that it also runs very hot even with the heatsink version (55-60c idle / 75c under load) it throttles at 80c and shuts down at 90c. temps were better using the larger motherboard heatsink (asus b850) but still running toasty, I would highly recommend a dedicated active cooling addon (check clearances as they are pretty high) or just stick a 92mm fan at 50% speed (silent) facing it directly (what I opted for) and it now barely hits 60-65c under load and 35c idle. room temp is 18c for all the above readings.
Review: Perfect M.2 - Blazing fast and rock solid reliability - the perfect 2tb drive for AM5.

I should not have bought a GEN5 drive in the first place. If you only game don't bother as there is no difference to performance. Get a bigger gen4 instead
