SSD getting 60+ degrees C

[The Torrent]

I was running a virus scan, and my pc got a bit slow.

 

paused it, checked temps. ran it again, watched them for a bit. varies between 50-60c, sometimes a few over 60.

 

Its a sabrent Rockett 1tb. Is this worrying or fine? I dont run a virus scan often.

Nothing to worry about. This is a relatively normal operating temperature for a M.2 SSD, tho it's a little on the high side. Might just be because of the mentioned virus scan, which of course puts a lot of load onto a drive.

 

The formfactor doesn't exactly allow a good disappation of heat either.
