toms hardware Phison: Enthusiast PCIe 5.0 SSDs Will Require Active Cooling

[ENTERPRISE]

Quote

Modern enthusiast-grade solid-state drives (SSDs) deliver unbeatable performance. Still, they tend to produce a significant amount of heat, which can hurt performance and harm data on NAND flash chips. Phison says that as drives get more advanced, they are getting hotter too, so expect high-end PCIe Gen 5 SSDs to require active cooling using a fan (perhaps, like the one pictured above). Meanwhile, the company says that it is working on reducing the heat of its controllers as applications like notebooks or compact desktops cannot accommodate large coolers.

Want!!!!!!!  

 

Seriously, I just want the cooler.  I can hardly tell a difference with modern NVME drives, but man I want that pod racer cooler.

...should be interesting to see how they fit underneath modern motherboard shrouds. Also "only 70 C..."  ...water-cooling gear for DDR5+ and PCIe 5+ should be a 'hot' seller soon.

Yeah we are going to see more and more WC tech coming out for DDR5/PCIe 5 components. Brace yourself!

No need to wait.  Plenty of "thicc" phones out there already, just check out modern dumb phones and how they're making a comeback in 2022 lol.

 

I just want the pod racer cooler.  That's all.

you have to attach it to a modern build in a retro atx beige case, and play episode 1 racer

And here I thought the few waterblocks I saw for nvme drives were a joke. Guess they were just thinking ahead. 

 

Yeah that is actually a really cool looking cooler.

Reminds me of the cryorig frostbit heatsink.
