Anyone know what is happening ?
Using a Crucial M500 240GB SSD

I didn't do much things , just surfing the web and to my surprise it hits such a high temp !!

hmm unlikely. if it really hits 127, it wont be working.

most likely is theres an error in reading its temp.

Any idea what's the max temperature it can work under ?

Feel it physically man. I suppose at least the base is metal. I doubt the temp reading is correct.

Wah, now HWMonitor can read SSD temperature?

Yup touch it, that 127 degree reading should just be an erratic reading, if there's even supposed to be a reading lol. My Plextor M5P is only very very slightly warm to touch after writing/reading for 30 mins without airflow cos I'm running open air now.

Theoretically such consumer SSD probably should come with temp probes maybe to shut it down if the operating temp reachs abnormal range, but most if not all 2.5" SSD's struggle to even hit past 30+ degree celcius, so pretty pointless to include such a feature. But I think TS's temp reading might be a fake one

I also hope that the reading is a fake one. don't wanna burn my 300 bucks this way.

thanks all for the help

Most temperature monitoring of Hard Disks are meant for normal Hard Disk and not for SSD. This result in a wrong display of the temperature of your SSD.

I read somewhere that there is somewhere you can correct this fault, but I cannot remember the page.

At 127C, your hands will burn if it is the true temperature.

I think most NAND components will fail at 90deg celsius.
