I have a asus rog g20, a small computer so my NVME drive doesn't get much air flow if any. I noticed in light work using the computer and such the temp will easily climb to 65c. I'd imagine it gets only hotter while gaming. Will it being at moderately high temperatures most of the time affect the drive? Is there anything i can do to help the drive stay cool?

Samsung says 90c is limit for their NVME drives but only for short time. There are many clip on coolers all the way up to something like this https://www.amazon.com/NVMe-Cooler-Heatsinks-Powerful-Cooling/dp/B07DGK8PWR depending on space available
