Tuf F17 FX706HE came with 500GB SSD, installed another 1 TB SSD in the 2nd slot, running fine so far performance wise (benchmark stuff). Just checked temps on hwinfo64 and was surprised when saw the 2nd SSD temps. It was running at 61'C, other SSD (Slot 1) is sitting at 36'C with 0% disk usage on both. CPU temps are around 50 'C. Temps doesn't stay at 61 C they hover around 55-60 C.
Is this safe, like the lifespan of SSD will be affected by this?
Also what is that thing covered with copper HS above 2nd SSD in the photo, that might be the reason why it is running hot.

Hi there,
I can only judge the Armoury Crate screenshot you provided.
The one for performance mode, the fan status and temperature are fine.
Thank you.

Hi,

That is a nice way of saying "I don't believe you unless you post screenshots", which I get honestly. Here is another screenshot of Armoury Crate.

Hi there,
As you said, the 60C is only a moment, right?
And then the fan did start to spin and the temperature would fall.
If so, it is consider fine as well.
Thank you.
