Cooler for 2nd m.2 ssd (rear of motherboard)

[marco999]

Hi,

I like to purchase a motherboard like this (mini-itx):

I like to install 2 x m.2 ssd. Unfortunatenly there is one ssd that is on the rear of motherboard.

For the first m2 sssd I can use this cooler:

I don't known if exist better cooler, but in all cases is better then nothing.

The problem is the other m.2 that is on the rear where the space is not enough to install a decent cooler.

In my old motherboard with only one m.2 in the read I have inserted 2 fans with dimension (4cm x 1cm) and the result is good (the max temperature normally is < 50°).

With the next motherboard I like to purchase a better cooling system.

At the moment the best optinion that I have taken in consideration is:

it is a vent of 8cm X 1cm of height.

Can you please suggest a better cooling system option for both m.2 ssd ?

Thanks !

I was worried about my m.2 on the back of my motherboard as it doesn't have a heatsink and there is no direct air flowing over it. Turns out looking at the temps it sits at a cool 30 deg C.

I recommend you give it a go as is and monitor the temps to see what range they sit in, you may find that passive cooling is enough.
