My Alienware 15 R3 has 1 NVME ssd 256G (THNSN5256GPUK NV) and 1 7200 rpm SATA (HGST). For better performance, I want to upgrade them to Samsung 960 Pro 512G and 850 Pro SSD (SATA) 1T. But what holds me is the temperature. Hwinfo64 reads the idling temperature of the THNSN5256GPUK is 41 (C), and the HGST is 30 (C). I'm not sure if my upgrading would cause heating issue. Ppl who have upgraded the storage could you kindly let me know if you reach a lower or higher running temperature?
