thinking of upgrading from my 2tb game drive that is currently a Samsung 980 Pro with heatsink..to a 4tb Crucial without. Is it 100% advisable to get one with a heatsink or just for games, will that be ok?
They don't need one for gaming since the load is low, usually only for very long sustained writes do you experience throttling (except for maybe PCIE 5.0 drives).
You can check reviews for yourself though, TPU include thermal testing/throttling in their reviews.
