that's massive but I'd rather have this than one of those tiny fans on my pcie5 drive.

Perfect for destroying M.2 socket, which wasn't designed for so much force perpendicular to drive plane when used in motherboards mounted vertically (most of computers).

Indeed, better suited for horizontal cases. Might get one to put in my horizontal HTPC, depending on the price ofc.

Stranger than fiction.

This development of Gen5 drives is gonna be a serious problem if heatsinks like this are needed. It's impossible to make this fit when using an all aircooling system. m.2 will have to move to a 3.5 inch HDD size heatsink form factor with cables coming from the motherboard and back to HDD cage mounting.

Indeed, i can see a lot of accidents happening where people bump into the heatsink and break the solder joints or rip off the pads entirely.

Yeah the NVME SSD is sandwiched, the cooler base is screwed into the base of the entire assembly. You might break the hold down screw, or damage the actual socket....but hurting the memory on the NVME SSD itself would be almost impossible.

Yeah, i meant the joints on the actual socket (should have been more clear).

not a good trend, they need to get the heat in check on those nvme drive or motherboard need to be redesigned to move location of nvme drive, being sandwiched between the ram/cpu/ gpu is just recipe for heat issues for everything and consider there isnt really room for such heatsinks to begin which should been red flag to begin with
