    Question Samsung SSD970 is constantly at 90 degree celsius IDLE!

    I want to thank everyone for the help. I think that moving the SSD to under the GPU is a possibility. However, for now, I decided to leave it where it is, because Samsung magician says the temperature is "normal". I have also read on the Samsung forum that the 970 EVO plus seems to be getting...

    Question Samsung SSD970 is constantly at 90 degree celsius IDLE!

    I don't see another slot under the GPU on my motherboard honestly. Plus, my GPU's fan is not moving at IDLE, when I am browsing the internet for instance (which I am mostly doing on my computer). so, I don't see a reason why my 2nd drive temp on my SSD is at around 90°C...

    Question Samsung SSD970 is constantly at 90 degree celsius IDLE!

    Thank you for your reply. I don't see another place to plug the SSD on my motherboard, below the GPU. Puting an external heatsink is an option, but after using Samsung Magician, which says 67°C (for 1st drive) is "normal", I am wondering if there is a problem at all with my temps. Though 2nd...

    Side panel on or off, the temperature is the same. I even opened the window with side panel off and then temperature is around 87, but not much difference.

    Question Samsung SSD970 is constantly at 90 degree celsius IDLE!

    Samsung Magician says firmware is up to date. It also says SSD is in good condition... and surprisingly, Samsung Magician says SSD temperature 67°C is "normal". Very surprised as HWINFO and CrystalDiskInfo are both showing temperature reading in red for the 2nd drive... So, then what does...

    Question Samsung SSD970 is constantly at 90 degree celsius IDLE!

    I do not know what the issue is at all. I am very curious to know what's happening. I am thinking maybe the SSD is damaged or maybe I have downloaded something that crushes it. But, really it is a mistery at this point.

    Thank you for your reply. Yes, the high SSD temperature is a new development. I used to check my temps regularly with 1-2 weeks interval in the last 1 year and it is the first time that the SSD temp are constantly high. Task manager tab: It has the stock heatsink, but I haven't attached any...

    Question Samsung SSD970 is constantly at 90 degree celsius IDLE!

    Thank you for your answer. The SSD is directly plugged to the motherboard, so as I understand, it is M.2 NVMe drive yes. I checked the temperature with an additional software (CrystalDiskInfo). The temperature IDLE is 68°C there. 1) (CrystalDiskInfo) 2) (HWINFO) Even on CrystalDisInfo...

    Hi, I just checked the temperature of my GPU via HWINFO and I noticed that the "Drive temperature 2" of my Samsung SSD evo plus 2TB is CONSTANTLY at around 90°C and it is in RED. I am just using my computer for browsing the internet and that's it. I don't understand why it is so hot. My...
