[SOLVED] SSD M.2 2280 Western Digital Black SN750 2TB 3D NAND NVMe

1. Is this a good M.2 to install and run Microsoft Flight Simulator?

2. I have two versions available: with and without heatsink.
Do I need to buy the M.2 version with heatsink, concerning that all M.2 slots from MSI MEG Z490 ACE have heatsinks?

Any SSD will work just fine with Flight Simulator...the WD SN750 is a good m.2 drive.

I would go with the one that has a heatsink especially if the m.2 drive is the NVME type vs SATA since the NVME ones can get quite hot under heavy use.

If you have the motherboard heatsinks and want to use them there's no problem doing that but you'll need to buy the m.2 without the heatsink as the factory installed ones are not supposed to be removed.

Yes. The motherboard is MSI MEG Z490 ACE which has heatsinks in all M.2 slots.

Yes. The motherboard is MSI MEG Z490 ACE which has heatsinks in all M.2 slots.

I have the 500GB version runs good. Their no reason to buy the heatsink version since you board has one.
