Why is keeping SSDs at lower temperatures so important?

Higher working temperatures may cause data loss. The degradation factor of data loss could be a hundred times higher. Compared with a regular plated heat spreader, the M.2 Thermal Guard XTREME improves thermal dissipation to keep the highest Seq. Read performance. With M.2 Thermal Guard XTREME, the SSD can operate at lower working temperatures to enhance data storage reliability. Enjoy smoother & upgraded storage performance any time by utilizing M.2 Thermal Guard XTREME.

*The test result is based on internal testing for reference only; actual performance may vary under different circumstances.
