Cooling Your SSD with a Heatsink - DIY in 5 Ep 195

[@PE4Doers]

How is this possible. How does Ms. Hersberger continually get more lovely?

[@voongnz]

I appreciate your graphene tree.

[@arturperzyna5453]

So should we peel the sticker from kc3000 or not? Whats the exact temp delta?

[@kingston]

If you are planning to use an additional source of heat dissipation besides the low profile graphene aluminum heat spreader that already comes with it you can certainly add it on top of it without removing the heat spreader. For a data sheet, please visit our site here: kings.tn/3Xi45m3

[@svenkilik]

Just to clarify, ive just brought the kingston fury renegade 2tb for the rog ally x. Since it has a heat spreader already on it, will that be fine just to put in without an additional heatsink. Because there isnt much room in it.

[@kingston]

Thanks for your inquiry and although we have not tested it out yet in that system, based on the info we found looks like our FURY Renegade NVMe SSD with the 'Heat Spreader' and not the 'Heat Sink' version could be a viable solution for your upgrade needs. If you have any further questions or run into an issue, please contact us here: kings.tn/3TrC7mK

I just love it when I learn new stuff from Mia.

[@justin_time]

A graphene heatsink? I've never heard of that before, but it sounds super cool! Literally - haha!

[@elita2cents]

It is the long sticker looking like band on any M.2 drive. For example, Western Digital has a "blue" series of M.2 drives called WD Blue, which have that blue-ish sticker on it with the WD logo and some information. That sticker is a heat sink made of graphene. Under no circumstances must this be removed, or it voids your warranty and may even cause damage to the memory dies.

[@strongerthanyoucanimagine]

my laptop has a very tight space to cool my secondary m2 SSD....any tip?

[@kingston]

For small profile systems where space is limited, such as small from factor desktops or laptops you can always do an online search for thermal SSD cooling pads. Which is essentially a low profile strip that goes on top of the SSD to help dissipate the heat. You can also look at our KC3000 and the standard FURY Renegade NVMe which comes with a graphene aluminum heat spreader already kings.tn/3RLsg9p

Nvme gen 5 will produce more heat then intel or amd old cpus

[@AritraMajumdar]

Problem is, you wouldn't pair an old intel or AMD gpu with an nvme gen 5 ssd as the motherboard won't support both simultaneously. You'll end up with a hot current gen CPU that generates a lot of heat, and an SSD that also generates some heat. Global warming for everyone amirite ?

[@AritraMajumdar]

Two points - a. SSD heatsink choice often boils down to how much breathing room is there above the m.2 slot. If you have a chonky GPU or other PCI-E card, one or more m.2 slots may fit in an SSD, but not one with a powerful heatsink, graphene, aluminium, kryptonitium or otherewise. b. Please point out that a lot of the SSD heating is due to the excess hot air circulating in the case from the CPU or GPU fans. Adding more heat sinks - to RAMs and now to SSDs, do not address the elephant in the room - CPUs and GPUs are geenrating more heat with each passing generation and now far outstrip the amount of heat generated by either RAM or VRMs or SSDs. If you could address this issue then the smaller problems will solve themselves.

[@hotflashfoto]

My AMD CPU is water cooled, so there's no CPU heat being dumped into my case. However, the GPU had 3 fans, so that has to be taken into account.

[@AritraMajumdar]

@@hotflashfoto yeah even if you take the CPU out of the equation, GPUs are super beefy and powerful these days so they do generate a huge amount of heat. You could also get a liquid cooled GPU but a full liquid cooled system is just too $$$ for most average gamers.

[@hotflashfoto]

​@@AritraMajumdar Yep, I tried that on my old GTX 680. Replaced that with an air-cooled 1060 and it was cooler than the 680! Now I have a 3080 with 3 fans. Like you say, I'm not spending that much $$$ on liquidating my GPU. It runs fine.

[@fairycat]

Thanks. Nice review.

[@AritraMajumdar]

Review of what ? It was a guidance video.

[@harshmakwana8001]

@@AritraMajumdar I think he meant " Thanks Nice VIew " for obvious reasons!

[@JS-cg3ir]

You didn't show us what heatsink to use, or how to mkae one. Hardly DIY...

[@westfield90]

I just upgraded my 3 year old 500gb Nvme with a WD 2tb Nvme. I cloned the drive and instantly windows was freezing and random blue screens. I reformatted and cloned again and same results. Put the old one back and it works perfectly. So I’ve ordered a heat sink for the new one and hopefully that will solve this issue.

[@Dreamlication]

Did it solve the issue?

[@westfield90]

@@Dreamlication Yes it did. The temp went from reaching a max point of 90 to now 70 and all works smoothly.

[@kingston]

Hey @westfield90 Here are a couple of little tips you can try if the clone OS won't Boot : Try running chkdsk on your source drive first. Repair File System: Boot from a live CD/USB or Command Prompt. Check and repair the file system. Windows: chkdsk /f /r` or Repair the Bootloader: Boot from a Windows installation media. Select "Repair your computer". Go to "Troubleshoot" > "Advanced options" > "Command Prompt". Run the following commands: sh bootrec /fixmbr bootrec /fixboot bootrec /scanos bootrec /rebuildbcd We hope it helps. Kingston Technology

not reallyan issue while playing a game ~ more so with masive read and write files

[@Maolana_ModiG]

When did cheap PLC ssd are coming. I need to store my photo and songs. I just want to use it as data storage for long time. I don't need super speed. Sequential read 50-60 Mbps is enough to play my movies and photos.

[@steven.events]

It's a shame that performance case fans make intolerable noise. It can take only one industrial fan to make an icebox out of your case. I need to upgrade my heatsink.
