Laptop SSD Heatsink

[Greenman]

Upgrading a 980 in my laptop to a 990 Pro. Installed the last one without a heatsink, ran fine for a long tike (still good). Should I bother with a heatsink for the 990? It's not my OS drive, just file storage and games.

Why the ’upgrade’ if the old one was fine! Bigger?

Does the laptop not support 2 m.2?

Would an SSD heatsink even fit in a laptop?

Big no

2 fold. 4tb for 1tb. In the 2nd of 2 slots. Need the space (Stalker 2 was 150gb) and I do record a lot of gameplay videos. Also, my brother could use the 1tb in his ps5.

No. I'm looking at these. .5mm thick. Still don't know if it'll fit.
