Dear all,

I wonder what really happens to my SSD (1TB Fusion Drive) when Im on windows 8. The SSD temp runs from 64*C to 58*C and vice versa. Dont know if its really hot or the sensor goes wrong.
As I know windows only runs on HDD portion so what makes SSD hot?!
Now when i log in to Mavericks the temp stand at 60*C and seems like never drop down. :-s

This is just windows power management, as long as your SSD doesn't go above 80 don't worry ;)
 
Not sure but my SSD temperature ( late 2013 ) is never above 52 C
 
Could be the type of SSD installed, as long as the components don't go above 80 it isn't gonna cause damage :)
If it bothers you, use smc fan-control or use iStat to control fans :)

In Windows or Mac? If Windows, do you use HWMonitor and AIDA?

As I google it and find, when fully stressed, SSD only consumes little over 1W.
still does not come close to anything regular 3.5" desktop drives. And that is the main reason i dont believe monitor software. But why 80*C, from where you read this information?

Regards.

Thank for your very quick and clear reply, what is your room temperature?
You're using a Samsung SSD, mine is Toshiba 128GB PCIe based. Maybe it makes difference.

I know this from experience :)
I'm doing an interim at as software engineer at a company and hard and software engineers work together a lot :)

If I may ask what iMac model are you using?

Hello Eric, Room temperature on average is 25C [ 20-27 C] and my iMac is 24/7 ON.

SSDs should not overheat whatsoever. They are mostly affected by the heat produced by other peripherals surrounding it.
