Hi Intel, I am using an s3500 which I had as a surplus around here. Why not use it on my laptop?
Small issue, ssd gets quite hot. I did change the power PowerGovernorMode to 2, would like to further try my luck with PhyConfig however that is totally undocumented anywhere.Any suggestions how to further tweak this on a laptop usage where airflow is quite low to 0 ?Attaching isdct info:

PRoland,
We definitely agree with you. While it should work just fine, we usually recommend these drives for systems designed with a little bit more airflow than laptops.You would be surprised to learn how often consumer drives are used in servers (despite our best recommendations), and how often data center models are purchased by end-users.We're glad to have been able to help.Best regards,Carlos A.
