I'm currently using the Kingston A400 SSD, as soon as I turn on the PC, the temps stay at around 52-55°C. While running software's like crystal disk mark, it goes up to 63°C. Is it safe or is my SSD overheating, I heard that high temp reduce the performance and shorten the life-span on the chips in the SSD.....

 

Ryzen 5 2400G -B450M DS3H Motherboard (Gigabyte) - 16GB RAM (CL 16, 3000MHz) - 240GB SSD (Kingston) - 1TB HDD(Seagate) - 450W PSU (Corsair)

At *idle*. Yeah, sustained 50C+ when the drive is doing nothing might be concerning. When it's under load? Nah.

 

Edit: Oh sorry. Missed the part about 50+ when you first boot. I read that as normal operating temp when actively using your computer (i.e. not under heavy load like in CDM). That may be concerning but your load temps are not bad, so it doesn't seem to be overheating, just perhaps running hotter than it should in general.
