After reading how hot these M.2 SSDs run, I can't see any point in using them other than as a great speed jump.

That WD Blue, just doesn't qualify IMO.

All M.2 SSDs generate serious heat, a simple Google will prove this to you.
If there is no speed advantage, why add more heat to an enclosure.

oh really so my sons 4690k, my 8700k and 4770k builds are suffering heat problems from m2



edit 4770k is msata though

why have that risk, when fan cooling can almost be just as good?
