Mine is fairly new and should have one, right? And wouldn’t really solve the problem. My problem isn’t thermal throttling, but wanting the bottom side of the Laptop to not get that warm (Framework 13 AMD being relatively cool and quite, if not charged fast or so, btw), more cool more comfortable. If this thing gets so warm I could use an USB stick and unplug it when not in use, but I purchased it so can have it in the Laptop when I use it and not dangling on the side.
The thing is it gets warm at all if not being even mounted or read/written from. It seems to take a lot power and doesn’t really and idle mode, like SSDs normally have. Maybe a Linux/Fedora problem or a firmware problem.
Should be fairly easy to recreate.
I could try being in the BIOS for half am hour and see if has the same effect, that would mean it’s a firmware issue, probably.
Not that comfortable to have it in and getting warm without being used.
And the temperature sensor thing, is another issue, but not of that much importance. Maybe it is because I have a 250 GB and not 1TB, but at least the 1TB seems to show a temperature reading in Windows, as you can see here:
