SATA SSD vs M.2 NVMe

I’m sure you will appreciate the extra speed if nothing else just for load times. And honestly heat is not an issue but if you are really worried adding a heatsink with thermal silicon or a pad is a simple fix and they cost little (although I never throw out old hardware without first stripping it of anything that might be remotely useful :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:)
