Blower fans are always noisy I can't imagine the pitch that one this small must operate at. Here's hoping the Cooler Master vapor chamber SSD cooler can do the trick, because it seems to be fairly low profile and has no fans.

The fans don't have to be spinning very fast. The heatsink looks beefy enough as is, and just ensuring air isn't stagnant probably does enough.

They're talking about 45c operating temperature which implies load and it's not Phison's new controller. The only coolers that can keep those temps down now are ones with big heatpipes which this has none of.

The max power supplied by an m.2 slot is 11.55watts. A reasonable sink with a bit of air flow can easily dissipate that much.

I think this is a bit of a niche product because any ethuiast looking at this will also understand how to direct enough case airflow over the stock heatsinks that comes with most motherboards to remove 12 watts.
