httpI bought a Samsung 970 evo plus 1tb. As soon as I took it in my hands, I immediately realized that there is no quality control. The first thing I noticed was chips on the contacts. I put it under the radiator of the motherboard, turn on the test and voila: the controller warms up to 80 degrees. I was surprised by this, because the same disk, also for a terabyte, also 970 evo plus, under the same radiator with the same thermal pad in the same year, warmed up on the controller in the same test to a maximum of 57. I checked the installation. All right. I turn on the test again and the same thing again. I took it apart, looked at the thermal interface of the radiator and did not see any traces of pressure to the controller there.
I took a ruler and measured the disk. The reason in the photo is that where there is a big gap, it is the controller. The heat sink of the radiator is pressed against the chips, but not against the controller. I don't know if this is due to the curvature of the textolite or due to the incorrectly installed controller at the factory, but this is a severe defect.
Sent this drive directly to Samsung. Samsung stated that the disk should be like that and there is no warranty case here. I don't know what to do with this. I was dumped like a jerk
