ARCTIC M2 Pro (Silver) - SSD Cooler for M.2 Drives

Overview

At-a-glance

• It’s possible to expand the storage capacity of the PlayStation 5 by retrofitting a fast M.2 SSD. Sony expressly emphasizes in the instructions that this M.2 storage medium requires a heat sink. The ARCTIC M2 Pro meets the specified requirements and is therefore suitable for installation in the PS5 and PS5 Slim.


• Thanks to its additional mass, the ARCTIC M2 Pro effectively dissipates heat from the chips and passes it on to the environment, resulting in cooler SSD and faster cooling off.

• The M2 Pro is available in black and silver. Its additional mass helps to effectively cool the chips, enable faster cooling and reliable performance of M.2 SSDs. Its slim design makes it compatible with the PlayStation 5 and provides optimal cooling for retrofitted SSD hard disks. It can be installed without screws or rubber bands thanks to the intelligent click system.


• The M2 Pro uses two precisely cut ARCTIC TP-3 thermal pads. Due to their softness, they are particularly suitable as thermal pads for M.2 SSDs, as they adapt optimally to the height difference of the heat-generating components. In addition, the TP-3 offers excellent thermal conductivity, is easy to handle and safe to use.


• The mounting of the ARCTIC M2 Pro does not require screws or rubber bands. Instead, the SSD is placed between the heat sinks using a click process. The NVMe SSD cooler is designed for both single-sided and double-sided 2280 M.2 SSDs. The height differences are compensated for by the included thermal pad.
