With the ever increg popularity of solid state drive (SSD) being used as the primary storage device in PCs, capacity and performance continue to climb in newer models but so have their operating temperatures. This has resulted in situations where SSDs, especially the smaller M.2 variants with less surface areas have overheated and throttled or shut down completely. To help alleviate this new generation of heat problems, Silverstone created the TP01-M2 thermal pad, a simple and effective cooling solution for M.2 SSDs. It has excellent thermal conductivity, is electrically non-conductive, and easy to apply. It is designed to fit between M.2 SSD and M.2 adapter card so it can transfer heat away from SSD to the larger adapter card surface for more effective heat dissipation.

This product can only be used in M.2 adapter card/motherboard with connector height of less than 4mm. Includes 2 Thermal Pads with 0.5mm and 1.5mm thickness. For single sided M.2 SSD (flat back w/o component), use 1.5mm pad; for double sided M.2 SSD (both sides w/components), use 0.5mm pad. Safe and easy to use. Supports M.2 SSD up to 110mm in length. Efficient heat conduction pad for reducing temperature.
