Here is a screenshot of the CrystalDiskInfo SSD and hard disk information software. The Crucial SSD has been equipped with a temperature sensor, as with the previous Micron SSDs, which can be queried correctly under Microsoft Windows 10. Alternatively the Crucial SSD temperature can be queried with the Crucial Storage Executive software. Idle temperatures above 40°C and load temperatures clearly above 50°C aren’t uncommon in M.2 SSDs, as you can see here after some benchmarks. We’ll return to the maximum NVMe temperature in the practical testing page.
