@Nestor12 and @Paul_Tikkanen 

just want to add that there are report that the 981 runs very hot so make sure the heat sink is securely on the SSD.

 

Make sure you clone the old SSD to the new one and keep the old SSD for a few weeks incase of failure.

I highly doubt a heat sink is going to fit.  Not enough clearance.

 

I also believe that drive was an OEM drive in several different HP notebook models.

 

@Nestor12 

 

If you want a cooler running 500 GB drive, this is the model I recommend:

 

Amazon.com: SAMSUNG 980 SSD 500GB PCle 3.0x4, NVMe M.2 2280, Internal Solid State Drive, Storage for...

 

The 1 TB drive hardly costs much more-- Maybe $10 USD
