Thermalright TR-M.2 2280 Type A B 2280 heatsink for SSD Cooling M.2 2280 heatsink Cooler, Aluminum, with 2 Thermal Conductivity, Desktop High Performance SSD Cooler, Black

I'll keep this short. I think this is my fourth Thermalright heatsink and honestly, these things just work. Been running them across desktop build, UNRAID array, Proxmox box, you name it. The construction is solid, installation is dead simple, and it completely eliminated those annoying temp warnings I was getting in UNRAID. The NVMEs are running noticeably cooler now, a scrub used to push them into the 65-70c, now they sit at a comfortable 40c-45c. Works well for the price.

For the price, this can't be beat. I recently upgraded my motherboard, and the new one didn't allow me to properly seat my old motherboard's included m2 heatsinks on it. I tried, but resting temperatures were around 61-62C and hit 71C under load. This dropped temperatures by 7-8C. Very easy to install, feels secure, and works passively to reduce heat on my Crucial P5.

Thermalright, am I right? Very good design, the function is what you need, doesn't have any bling. The packaging, the materials, etc. are all impeccable. Not over the top. But then the price is just right. I am VERY impressed with Thermalright. If they keep it up, I will just search for their products every time.

TLDR: Fractal Terra users should check motherboard and GPU tolerance for rear-mounted SSDs. Other than that, great heatsink. This heatsink certainly gets the job done. I've seen lower temps on my rear-mounted 990 PRO ever since installing it. However, I would beware of tolerance issues if you have a Fractal Terra Mini ITX case. After applying the heatsink onto my SSD, it was very difficult to assemble my PC back together. The riser cable was being pressed up against the heatsink by the GPU cooler. I managed to get it put back together, but I'm not sure how this will affect long term performance. Mobo: Asrock B650I Lighting GPU: ASUS DUAL RX 7700XT SSD: 990 PRO 4TB Case: Fractal Terra

Extremely well made, very easy to install. I have high confidence that this will improve the thermal performance nvme ssd. This is gonna be a vast improvement over anything else.

Keeps my nvme drive nice and cool. The thermal pad is stuck on good so no worries of that coming off.

THE BEST nvme heatsink

I used this on a Crucial P310 in the secondary nvme slot on my GIGABYTE B660M DS3H . It was close even my compact two fan RTX 4070 Ventus 2X 12G OC but it did fit.. See the picture I added. I didn't notice until i was taking the picture for this review that i put the Thermalright logo upside down, so mind the orientation when installing. The temps stay cool.. I checked with crystal disk info and it's showing 38 degrees Celsius with average use here in winter. I will have to check in the summer when it's warmer in the room but yeah I am satisfied.
