Like ram chips. It'll be fine without a fan in most cases as long as your airflow is OK and ambient Temps aren't high. A heatsink will and does make a big difference without active cooling.

Yeah there's still a sector that uses SATA III lol. Not everybody has access to an M.2 port, nor do they have any real need for an NVMe drive over a SATA drive.
