I dont know if I will ever need my SSD to be so fast it has to have a huge heatsink or active cooling on it.
In the past 5-7 years I cant once remember thinking "danm this pc is taking forever to boot, save, or load a program"
IMO once you have to add things like heatsinks and active cooling you've past the point of diminishing returns.

Exactly!

My 10 year old PC (with Samsung 860 SATA) boots in 20 seconds. Plenty fast for me!
