Is your SSD getting a little warm? be quiet! has a cooling solution to help keep your SSD temps under control. The MC1 and the MC1 Pro take SSD cooling to the next level. Find out if a little extra air flow makes a difference!
Thank you for your video! I got the MC1 for my 970 Evo Plus 2TB, desktop w/2 fans front & 1 rear. Without cooling, the controller reached 94C with Crystal Mark. With the MC1 it went down to 65, same room temp. Very impressive!!
For the first step of installation which side of the sdd did u have facing up I can’t tell which side should be facing down against the thermal and which side should be facing up?
I was disappointed when i wanted to use my motherboard heatsink. It was designed for a 22110 m2 drive and the head of the screw prevented me to apply it on the drive.
Don't unplug your power supply. Doing so will remove the ground from the motherboard. If you must unplug, run a ground strap from the case to a ground.
Thanks for the vid. Nitpicking abit here, though: if youre using C as temp on the benchmark, why not change it on the ambient thermometer as well(or the other way around?
I'm currently looking for a cooler for the SSD on the rear of my motherboard. Space is tight so the more low profile the cooler is the better. Would you be able to tell me the total thickness of the coolers when they are fully assembled with an SSD inside of them? I've been trying to find the dimensions online but can't find anything reliable
I just did and it fits you just have to put the cover to the holes on one side and just push down the other side with your fingers and then just put the screw and turn it , the cover is flexible and holds well enough.
Just what I needed, thanks. I want to know how much is the deference between the Bequiet heatsink and stock m.2, cause I want to get one for my PS5. It performed really well.
While sandwiching the drive, to set it good on can u slide alittle to line up wont thay harm the stickyness of the cooler? Hope u understand what i say sir.
For the first step of installation which side of the ssd(mine is 980 pro) do u have facing up I can’t tell which side should be facing down against the thermal and which side should be facing up? The side that says 980 pro or the other side of ssd that says Samsung ssd
I got mine for cheap 2 dollars china brand. Almost the same performance, mine is max temp 51° room temp 27°c. I tasted multiple times but i came to the most effective one. Putting thermal pad to the controller chip and leave the nand flash chip vacant and not touching the heat sink. I actually test that the controller is hotter than the nand flash so i didn't need to put the thermal pad and heat sink on the ssd.
If i use one for a second ssd in the m2 slot beneath my graphics card it probably won't fit being so high ye? Like the card will not click in cuz of the height of the ssd with the cooler? Did some1 try that? Guess thats why there's no factory cap there in the second slot. Edit: i use msi X470 pro carbon motherboard, my 2nd slot is not beneath the gpu but like exactly under it.
In my old desktop when I turned off the PSU the light from the GPU would stay lit for about 25 seconds or so, but with the PSU off, then pushing the on button on the desktop makes the light disappear almost instantly letting me know there shouldn't be any power left in the system.
I seem to have bought the MC1 Pro by mistake did not notice till it was pretty much late to cancel it. I thought I was getting a simple one. Anyways it is a great mistake and this Video which is great has proven me right in choosing. One thing to actually prove is if is going fit good enough since it will be basically under the GPU EVGA RTX Geforce 3070 Ti FTW3 and I will not consider moving GPU to lower PCI-E slot no sir. Will see when arrives this Friday Nov 12, 2022 anyhoot I order 2 M.2 heatsinks one cheaper I will see who makes the cut.
I have two WD_black SN770 2TB installed in my system. The one connected to the cpu, was using the MB Heatsink, just like the one in the video. But it was reaching 89ºc in the nand, when copying. The other one connected to chipset, is using one from a Chinese manufacture, the cost me 15€, and the max temp is 66ºc. So i bought another one, and the temp changed to 66ºc max, idle is 56ºc. The funny thing, not so funny is that the one connected to the ChipSet is faster than the one connected to the CPU, even that the speed of the bus is the same in both 4x PCIE 4.0, and the GPU is at 16x 4.0.. I don´t understand how, it should be the opposite.
Love the video, gave you a thumbs up. As politely as possible, there are ssd coolers like yours that have their own laptop fan. What you have is good but not really a permanent solution
SSDs like to be warm, but not hot. Don't over cool. If you have a relatively powerful SSD, the factory heatsink is sufficient. If it doesn't come with a heatsink, something like the MC1 is plenty. Yes, there are users that are constantly moving huge amounts of data and are stressing the SSD for hours. These folk want the best cooling they can get. For the rest of us, including gamers and non-pro video editors, basic cooling is just fine. If you're a light user or have a moderate SSD, no heatsink needed. Seriously, don't over cool. You'll shorten the life of your SSD. There are conditions where the SSD is boxed in, with no airflow (e.g. PS5), where anything you can do to give it some cooling is a good thing.
