My NVME drive in my old Acer 17 always ran 50C and pushed 60s. I added a heat sink and it helped a little. Yesterday it went crazy. I pulled it, put it in an external without the case. Plugged in a USB on PC2 and tried to copy user files. It would heat up and fail. Now I can't even get it to finish populating file explorer. Blazing hot to touch.
Looking for an ice pack to move the files.
Probably going to need "take ownership" to access the user files.
