Small, fast, hot – M.2 SSDs. The compact power packs require additional cooling to ensure consistently high performance. ARCTIC offers the right solution with the M2 Pro.
M.2 SSDs are true speed miracles. However, they tend to reach high temperatures quickly during intensive use and reduce performance early to avoid overheating.
The M2 Pro was specifically designed for 2280 M.2 SSDs. Thanks to its additional mass, it not only keeps the temperature under control, but also ensures that the SSD can cool down more quickly. This enables reliable performance and a long service life.
