  • Double-sided thermal pads ensure full contact with SSD chips for comprehensive cooling
  • Compact design fits PS5 M.2 2280 expansion slot without space conflicts
  • Lowers operating temperature to reduce thermal throttling and extend SSD lifespan
  • Simple tool-free installation ideal for PS5 storage upgrade and high-speed cooling

PS5 M.2 NVMe heatsink

This aluminum heatsink is designed specifically for the PS5 console M.2 expansion slot. It targets owners upgrading their console storage with a 2280 NVMe SSD who need reliable cooling. The compact form factor fits the internal bay without clearance issues. Installation is straightforward and requires no specialised tools.

Thermals and power

The aluminum radiator absorbs and dissipates heat from the SSD during extended gaming sessions. Double-sided thermal pads contact the controller and memory chips on both sides of the drive. This all-round conduction lowers operating temperatures and reduces thermal throttling. Stable read and write speeds are maintained under sustained workloads.

Build and daily use

Precision machining ensures the heatsink matches the PS5 M.2 slot dimensions exactly. The package includes thermal pads for immediate installation. The design avoids blocking adjacent components once assembled. It is intended only for 2280 NVMe SSDs used for PS5 expansion.

Questions about this item

How do I install this heatsink on a 2280 NVMe SSD for the PS5, and what step is often missed?

Attach the supplied double-sided thermal pads to both sides of the SSD first, then clip the aluminum heatsink over them. The step people miss is confirming the SSD is exactly 2280 length before starting.

What maintenance or replacement will this heatsink need later?

The thermal pads can dry out or lose conductivity after extended use. Replacing them with fresh pads of the same thickness restores full heat transfer to the aluminum radiator.

What limit appears first during sustained high-speed gaming on the PS5 with this cooler fitted?

The thermal capacity of the aluminum body itself. Under continuous heavy I/O the heatsink saturates and can no longer draw heat away fast enough, so the SSD begins to throttle.
