Efficient Copper Heat Spreader Design
IMPROVED THERMAL TRANSFERCompared with a plated M.2 heat spreader, new efficient copper heat spreaders with 27 fins add more surface area which improve thermal transfer from heating sources to obtain thermal balance sooner. Moreover, Optimized fin array design does great heat exchange with any direction of air flow. Both unique design makes sure key components of PCIe 4.0 SSD to keep suitable working temperature under ultra-high transfer rate. Higher working temperature may cause data loss and the degradation factor of data loss could be a hundred times higher. With Full Body Copper Heat Spreaders, the AORUS NVMe Gen 4 SSD can operate at lower working temperatures to improve data storage reliability. Furthermore, SSDs can deliver extreme performance for longer periods.
Check your SSD’s Health Using the Tool Box
MONITOR THE SSD’S STATUS WITH EASEThe freshly restructured SSD Tool Box is an innovative application that assists users by monitoring SSD Status, providing general information such as model name, FW version, health condition, and it also identifies sensor temperature. Furthermore, users can clear all the data with the Secure Erase function.
