HP Omen 17 cb1005nu
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hello.

I have HP OMEN 17 with 2080 super and 10750h. I bought it last September or November.  I am dealing with decreasing the CPU temps and I will try these days to change the thermal paste. However, I have another issue.

I have an issue with the SSD.  When I run HW INFO with sensor information, I see that my SSD - SAMSUNG MZVLB1T0HBLR-000H1 (S4GRNF0N410318) has VERY high temperatures. Now, with just tabs open, it says "drive temperature 2 - 84 degrees"
Driver temperature 1 says 60 degrees.  I am not sure if it's correct, but I remember another program was also reporting super-hot temperatures for this SSD. 
It has amazing performance, I never expected to have 3500mb speed, however, those temperatures worry me. Before I had a moment where I played a game, The forest, and the computer shut down. When I was checking the temperatures, I saw it was not the CPU nor the GPU, so basically the SSD got too hot and let to my computer to stop.

Can someone tell me what is the "normal" temperature for this SSD? Is there a way to improve the temperature of this SSD in the laptop? Some solution like thermal pads? And how/where?

Thank you in advance

This is apparently an NVMe drive -- and those run VERY hot!  So much so, that when you buy new motherboards with m.2 NVMe slots, those usually come with their own heatsinks.

 

In a laptop, this is especially bad since the lack of room and cooling can cause these to get really, really hot -- and that heats up the rest of the internal components.

I wish I knew this before or somewhere it was written as a warning. I could just get one of Samsung's Evo SSDs.  :{

 

Can someone from HP give me a solution, for my exact model - CB1005 how can I improve the thermals? Reapply thermal paste/put pads? Or any experience in which of the 2 slots I'll have better temperatures? 

I wish someone was making custom bottom covers, if there existed an open-type with long legs..
