White aluminium M.2 2280 heatsink with integrated 20mm PWM fan and ARGB lighting

SMUGDESK

SMUGDESK White ARGB M.2 2280 SSD Heatsink 20mm PWM Fan

SKU CH-3W4Y-9214C

White ARGB M.2 2280 SSD heatsink with built-in 20mm PWM fan for active NVMe cooling

  • Active cooling with a 20mm PWM fan prevents thermal throttling on M.2 2280 NVMe drives
  • Premium aluminum shield conducts heat efficiently for long-term stability
  • 5V 3-pin ARGB sync lets motherboard software control lighting effects
  • Designed exclusively for M.2 2280 NVMe and NGFF solid-state drives
  • Clean white finish matches modern desktop builds while delivering high-performance cooling

White ARGB M.2 2280 SSD Heatsink

This heatsink mounts directly onto an M.2 2280 solid-state drive and uses an integrated 20 mm PWM fan to push air across a premium aluminium shield. The 5 V 3-pin ARGB connector synchronises lighting effects with compatible motherboards. A clean white finish suits modern desktop builds.

Passive M.2 heatsinks and uncooled slots

A passive heatsink relies only on case airflow, which can be insufficient during sustained high-load read and write operations. The built-in fan actively moves air across the aluminium surface, lowering drive temperatures and preventing thermal throttling. The upgrade is worth it when workloads push the SSD into its throttle zone.

Builders adding active cooling to an M.2 2280 NVMe

This cooler fits the 2280 form factor and requires a 5 V 3-pin ARGB header for lighting control. It does not suit shorter M.2 lengths, drives taller than standard single-sided modules, or systems lacking a compatible ARGB header. Buyers needing passive-only cooling or alternative form factors should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item

Will this heatsink fit my M.2 2280 NVMe drive?

Yes, the heatsink is designed exclusively for M.2 2280 NVMe solid-state drives and secures them with the included mounting hardware.

How do I connect the 20 mm PWM fan and 5 V 3-pin ARGB cable?

Plug the fan into a motherboard PWM header and the ARGB lead into a 5 V 3-pin ARGB header; the fan will then speed up under load and lighting will sync with motherboard software.

Does the 20 mm fan need periodic cleaning?

Yes, dust the fan blades and heatsink fins every few months with compressed air to maintain airflow and cooling performance.
