Not surprising, the same thing even happens in my regular MBP with a 3rd party SSD and with FileVault turned on.
We're used to the idea that fans shouldn't speed up, unless we're doing something with the CPU, but those fast SSDs also get hot (and FileVault keeps the CPU at a baseline, too).
It's just that I/O activity is much harder to track down compared to the CPU activity that's easily visible in Activity Monitor. So when the fans spin up, it looks like a mistake.
