Hi all
I’ve been buying a laptop
It came with 512gb nvme (samsung mzvlq512hblu-00bh1)
The nvme heat was like crazy.
I can even feel the excessive heat through the bottom chassis
And when performing windows update i try to monitor the temperature. it was 79°C
49°C during idle.
But it was easy to ramp up to 70-80°C rapidly.
Does anyone can confirm this is the normal heat for this type of nvme?

80C in laptop enviroment (no heatsink/ambient airflow), ye that sounds normal, nvme will just throttle a bit
