  • Groove design expands heat-dissipation area for stable SSD operation
  • Aluminium alloy with anodised finish resists corrosion and adds durability
  • Two silicone thermal pads (1 mm and 1.5 mm) enable dual heat dissipation
  • Fits M.2 2280 drives including SM951, SM961, 950PRO, XP941
  • Kit includes heatsink, both pads, three rubber rings and cleaning wipes

M.2 2280 Aluminium Heatsink Kit

This aluminium heatsink kit is built for M.2 2280 solid-state drives such as the SM951, SM961, 950PRO and XP941. It adds a grooved aluminium body and two silicone thermal pads to draw heat away from the controller and memory. The silver anodised finish resists corrosion. The package includes a cleaning kit and three rubber rings for secure mounting.

Installation and Common Issues

Installation is straightforward: clean the drive with the supplied wet and dry wipes, choose the 1 mm or 1.5 mm pad to match the component height, apply the pad, press the heatsink into place and secure it with the rubber rings. The thin 3 mm profile helps avoid clearance problems in tight slots. The main risk is selecting the wrong pad thickness, which can leave gaps or apply uneven pressure on the controller.

Who This Suits and Who Should Look Elsewhere

This kit suits builders who want a simple, passive cooling upgrade for a single-sided M.2 2280 drive and have enough vertical space for a 3 mm heatsink. It is not for drives taller than 22 mm, double-sided modules that exceed the pad thickness options, or systems where the motherboard shroud leaves less than 3 mm of clearance above the slot.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the heatsink is keeping my M.2 2280 SSD cool after installation?

Monitor the drive temperature in your system BIOS or a hardware utility; the grooved aluminum design and included thermal pads should lower peak temperatures under load.

What comes in the package and is anything else needed for installation?

The kit includes one E-shape aluminum heatsink (70x22x3mm), one 1mm thermal pad, one 1.5mm thermal pad, three rubber rings, and a cleaning dry/wet kit; no extra parts are required.

Which thermal pad thickness should I choose for my SSD?

Use the 1mm pad if the gap between the SSD controller and heatsink is thin, or the 1.5mm pad for a larger gap; both measure 70x22mm to match the heatsink footprint.
