Worth getting a m2 drive cooler/heatsink?

[subbass]

Just recently got the Corsair mp510 and idle temps are around 32C. I know it's not that high but it's much higher than SATA ssd and I've seen it shoot up to 48C.

Is it worth getting and if so which one?

Yes esp for the growth to your epeen.

My 2.5" Samsung 860 Pro (Windows OS drive 512GB) runs around 30C which is hotter than any SSD I have owned before it (round rear of case behind Mobo tray).

The Games/Steam drive (twice the Capacity 1TB) runs 3C cooler at idle but under load the Windows one can be 10C hotter but I read that is normal for modern SSD's under load (I mean to get a good bit hotter not the temp range).

You can fit a passive heatsink to help. But those temps are perfectly normal.

If you have good case cooling you should not need any heatsinks for ssd or m2`s.
