    Hi,


    I think all Razer's owners have heat issue on SSD...

    Like my first bench :

    I remoxe sticker on SSD and plade 2 pads of 1mm Gelid 14W/mk on over the other (2mm). This big pad is on contact with the aluminium backplate.

    And the result is......

    Could you run 5-6 rounds in a row with ATTO Disk Benchmark and post results? Should easily push your ssd harder than what a single run CrystalDiskmark can. Post picture as before. Thanks

    Becareful though, now you made contact between your SSD and backplate, the backplate flexes a bit so if you press the backplate inwards you are pushing extra stress onto the drive connector which isnt really ideal.... The lifespan isnt too great for these connectors to begin with.

    The pads touch just a little bit the backplate. With very ligh pressure. Just a simply contact to transfer thermal.
    No pressure on ssd connector.
