If you're looking for a good PS5 drive this is a great value and faster than the SN750. DRAM-less but fast (>5,000 MB/s). Review units don't have a heat spreader/sticker as shown in the images.
This is a much faster, but more power hungry and hotter drive. The P31 is a better laptop drive. This is a very good entry level PCIe 4 drive for current generation PCs and the PS5. For PCIe 3 desktops, I'd suggest the Samsung 970 Evo Plus as the quality pick or the Intel 670p as a value alternative.
Is the sticker really a heat spreader? How can you install a real heatsink over the sticker?
Units shown in reviews have the sticker on the PCB, so should be able just to stick the think in a heatsink no problem. WD doesn't seem to provide much value with integrated thermal management.
