Not entirely true, but having one won't be detrimental so it doesn't matter a whole lot one way or the other
They have the same for $114.99 save $5 more

The controller can thermal throttle when running at too high of a temperature.
This is the function of the heat spreader: to bring the heat *from* the controller to both *cool* the controller and *heat* the NAND.
That's what enclosures on enterprise U.3 NVME drives do. That's why M.2 SSDs ship without installed heatsinks.
The only time a heatsink makes a positive difference is if you're actively writing tons of information to a drive *and* you haven't exhausted the SLC cache space.
That's why SSDs doesn't happen with PS5s as they are basically write-once (limited by your Internet speed.)
Jayz video is simply him running benchmarks that don't represent real-world usage and reporting temperatures with no regard to if it is "good" or "bad"; only "higher number bad."
(Also, random but reminder that TBW values are warranty values with little bearing on actual write endurance. Write endurance would be tested with a JEDEC endurance rating. TBW values are largely a way to attificially segment products.)

And what is a technical architect Lmao…have seen just about every computer major out there and in every university, including data scientists and AI and have never come across a technical architect.
