We took note of the drive’s temperature during some of our benchmarking runs.

Corsair's MP700 PRO not only has a chunky aluminium heatsink but for extra cooling, one end of the heatsink has a tiny fan built into it and the combination works well. During our benchmarking runs, the hottest the drive got was 53° C during the CrystalDiskMark 8 default write test. The drive has a maximum operating temperature of 70°C and should the temperature exceed 76°C then thermal throttling will be triggered. For the non-4K tests the drive averaged 43.31°C

For the 4K-based tests, the MP700 PRO averaged 37.57°C.
