Just FYI 1TB SSD has 600TBW, 2TB - 1200TBW, controller PHISON E31T
Flash: Kioxia, TLC
It's very weird how they haven't come up with a standard for NVME heatsinks when they can now generate as much heat as a graphics card at idle.

Again, a Gen 5 drive can generate as much heat as a graphics card.
They need active (dedicated fan) cooling.
Motherboard plates look nice, but they trap heat.

Totally false.
Go look up any Gen 5 review and see how prevalent thermal throttling is.
Also, graphics cards have massive heatsinks. Of course the fans don't run at full blast by default. That doesn't change their thermal profile.
Or do you somehow think 100°F varies depending on what generates it?

Your pedantism isn't even arguing in good faith.

The reason why GPUs have active cooling is because they use hundreds of watts. SSDs use around 10W max. Again, your analogy is dumb and you're the one who isn't arguing in good faith because you keep jumping back and forth between idle vs under load, and conflating the two scenarios to try and support your ridiculous opinion that active cooling should be mandatory for SSDs.
Also 100°F is incredibly cool for PC parts. You don't even know the difference between F and C, and here you are blocking people LOL
