Sabrent SB-HTSS User manual

Brand: Sabrent

Model: SB-HTSS

Type: User manual

Sabrent SB-HTSS is a state-of-the-art heatsink designed to maximize the performance of NVMe PCIe GEN 4 drives by dissipating excessive heat generated by extreme speeds. Its winning combination of copper and aluminum absorbs and spreads heat, avoiding thermal throttling. Ideal for single or double-sided M.2 drives, it features an uneven coil design for optimal heat dissipation. Installation is simple, involving attaching the drive to the tray, securing it to the heatsink, and inserting it into the motherboard's M.2 slot.

Sabrent Rocket Heatsink

Installation Guide

When installing any NVMe PCIe GEN 4 directly onto a

PCIeGEN 4 motherboard, a heatsink is required to dissipate

the heat generated by the drive’s extreme speed levels to

avoid thermal throttling and to maximize the performance.

Many PCIe GEN 4 motherboards are sold with a built in

heatsink, so you’re good to go without an added heatsink.

Just follow the manufacturers user manual for the installation

instructions. If your motherboard does not have a built in

heatsink, we recommend using the Sabrent Rocket Heatsink

for optimal performance.

NVMe PCIe extreme speeds generate excessive heat, to help

dissipate the heat. Sabrent has developed a state of the art

heatsink using the winning combination of copper and

aluminum. The copper is used to absorb the heat from the

drive, spreading it up to the grooved aluminum, giving the

heat more air surface to cool off, therefore avoiding thermal

throttling and maximizing the performance of your drive.

1. Make sure to remove the clear thermal tape protector from

the thermal tape, placed both on the heatsink and on the tray,

prior to placing the drive in the tray.

2. Identify if your SSD is a single sided or double-sided M.2

drive

3. If your drive is a single sided drive please continue to step

4. If your drive is double sided please skip to step 5.

4. If your drive is a single sided drive apply the extra thermal

tape provided (B) on top of the thermal tape that is already

placed on the tray (A) after removing the clear protector from

all sides of the thermal tape.

5. Place the SSD in the tray on the thermal tape and make

sure the groove meant for the screw placed in the back of the

drive is flush with the same groove that is in the back of the

aluminum tray.

6. Attach the tray with the drive to the heatsink ensuring that

the side with the uneven coils are on the back, on the side of

the groove meant for the screw.

7. Align the holes that are on the side of the tray with the

screw holes that are on the side of the heatsink (you may

need to apply pressure). Then, insert 2 screws on each side.

8. Insert the drive (with the heatsink) to your motherboard

into the M.2 slot. Then insert the screw into the motherboard

to hold the drive in place.
