any recommendations of normal slim heatsinks? I'm planning on getting the SSD for my system, but don't have any current heatsinks since I have a prebuilt

Also, i never bought a heatsink before, any thoughts on which of the listed heatsinks are better? Im planning on using amazon for the one day delivery so i listed amazon links. Im also a bit confused on which choices are better since both had some reasonable negative reviews

are you experiencing abnormal temperatures with this M.2 drive?
if so, like what?

i've haven't seen a personal system yet that actually needed 3rd party heatsinks on their drive(s).
Oh I forgot to mention, I'm going get the SSD, haven't got it yet. and I heard that it's recommended to have heatsinks for gen 4 nvme m.2.

I also have a prebuilt, so i don't really have any heatsinks lying around
