Hi!
Is there enough room in the case (on the motherboard) of the Framework Desktop for a SSD with a heatsink? Say the WD_Black SN850X drive (sold here) but the model with a heatsink?
From the video it looks like it but I want to be sure.
Thanks!
Yeah so there are heatspreaders already with the Desktop. Nevermind!
It says in the specs:
2x NVMe PCIe 4.0 x4 M.2 2280 sockets with heatspreaders, up to 8TB each

The included heatspreader seems to be visible here and it could probably also be exchanged for a bigger one. The CPU cooler might be limiting though.
Yes I see! I think a regular SSD would do. I was worried there were no heatspreaders or heatsinks at all and no room for a SSD with one.
Thanks!
Is there a Frame.Work recommendation with regards to SSDs i.e. with or without heatsink? Or does the presence of a heat spreader mean there is no room for a heatsink on the SSD anyway?
I don’t think there is a recommendation so far. For sure the SSDs they sell here would do (WD Black SN 850 for example). I don’t know if they sell the ones with a heatsink though.
