Corsair MP600 GS 2TB SSD Review

We took note of the drive’s temperature during some of our benchmarking runs. Corsair's MP600 GS doesn't come with any form of heatsink which is always a bit of a worry because of the heat that Gen 4 drives generally put out. That worry is alleviated in the MP600 GS somewhat by the fact it uses a four-channel controller. The hottest the drive got during benchmarking was when it was running the default Peak Performance profile in CrystalDiskMark 8; 51°C for both reads and writes, which is about as close to the 70°C maximum you would want to get. When running the 4K tests the drive averaged 38°C comfortably inside that official limit.
