Hi Guys,

I want to know if having a Temperature 45 degrees on my M.2 is okay? It currently running on a ASUS ROG STRIX B460H. This heat might be part of the GPU since they are quite close to each other.

That is perfectly normal.  45c is nominal actually for the M.2.  A SSD can be 20c less but its different tech.  It is ok for the M.2 to even go to 50c or past.  So no worries everyones M.2 gets warm like this compared to SSD which is in the twenties C.

Thank you. Im totally relieved. I am a bit worried since my HDD and SSD are running on green temperature while this one is different. I thought it will surely affect the longevity of the device.

Nope! your safe my friend.  It will live 10 years + if it has to and as long as you don't kick your case or pick it up and drop your ok.

Most M.2 have an operating temperature of 70°C or 158 degrees Fahrenheit.
