SSD Operating Temperatures
Temperature Measurements
During our test benchmarks stress tests with a high-stress workload, we monitor the SSD temperature. The unit idles at roughly 30 Degrees C, the peak stress temperature measured hovers at roughly 65 Degrees C, which is absolutely fine. However, when you stress the SSD long term, temperatures will start to light up. Multiple zones will heat up due to leaking heat. In fact at M5just below the controller, we see temperatures reaching well over 90 degrees C. This is without heat spreader and any airflow. It takes a while before the SSD gets this hot, but we're certain at one point it'll start to thermally throttle.
