Kioxia BG5 1TB SSD Review

We took note of the drive’s temperature during some of our benchmarking runs. The Kioxia BG5 doesn't come with any form of a physical heat sink but it didn't seem to run that hot whatever we threw at it. The hottest it got was when it was being pushed hard during the CrystalDiskMark default tests and the Performance Stability test where the drive got to 54° C and 52° C respectively. Those temperatures are comfortably below the official maximum operating temps for the drive which is 95° C for the controller and 85° C for any other components.
