Well done, I love these sort of projects where people take control over their hardware. An extra salute for publicly documenting it.
I wonder if it will cause airflow issues? The original(and updated) pcb has a large hole in the center, I presume for airflow across the drives. which the nvme drive obscures. My guess is there will be enough leakage around the edge of the nvme to provide enough cooling to the normal drives and you get the worlds best cooled nvme drive for free. However, it does look very tight.
- granra 3y agoThis was also a concern of mine. Not knowing too much about aerodynamics I can't be certain but I think some airflow should be going through the hole. You may also have noticed that the screw standoff for the SSD is pushed as far out to the left of the PCB to allow for more air to pass on the right side. But I have at least not noticed any negative cooling performance :) Thanks for your comment!
