Hey folks. I have this Samsung 950 M.2 SSD and well it gets to hot. To remedy this I wan´t to extend the M.2 port so i could glue my M.2 SSD on the CPU heat-sink

My question is only if something like this: https://www.m-ware.de/adapter-und-konverter/adapter-ngff-m-2/m-ware-adapter-m-2-ngff-b-m-key-sata-ssd-verlaengerung-id14826/a-14826/

Will reduce any performance, or in worst scenario not work at all ??? Thx

Hey guys thanks for all those quick awnser. So I thought of installing a copaper hest sink on it, but my GPU is sitting right on top with the Noctua cooler.

I though the temperatures where normal until last week my SSD dyed probably due to heat, I wanted to extend so I could glue under my CPU fan.

If your case has a spot for a side fan, having one blow directly on it may well be enough to help.

Were you monitoring temperatures that you know this to be the problem?

:lol: the old 950 is dead and I will receive a new one, I will make sure to update the firmware ( if it works). The important is somehow to extend my m.2 port, I will give a try and write a topic later
