my ssd is hitting 51 degrees c and i'm using my platter drive for storage of my games i was playing metro exodus a while ago.

hdd sentinel stopped me and shown that my computer ssd was running at 51 degrees. The back exhaust fan had died now im playing wolfenstien and its still hitting 51 degrees except

hdd sentinel did nothing why is my ssd hitting that level? it never used to go into the red could it be air blowing from my gpu? this has never been a problem before.

could it be the noctua fan i replaced my old fan with is just pushing to much air? idk  can i get somw help.

thx

i play my games off of my platter drive

SSDs more or less allways run that hot. unless you have active airflow over it.

the SSD will throttle itself if it gets too hot. and too hot is about 100*C at which point it will slow down to protect itself from overheating. and you wont reach that temp unless you do a very, very, very big transfer over to the SSD.
