Wait, could this be my first kernel bug?

I've got a Gigabyte X299 Aorus Master with i9-10980xe overclocked at 4.8Ghz, two nvme drives mounted on the motherboard, this is about the most power hungry consumer level CPU you can get (maxes at around 540 watts), yet the ssd's which are also fairly heavily used in a database, only run at about 29C. Perhaps your GPU is heating up your SSDs? I have no active cooling on mine either, just the cheesy heat sinks. I'm running 6.11.2, unfortunately 6.11 kernels past two have some code that breaks the i9-10980xe so stuck at that for the moment.

Note:
Amds Zero RPM is getting support in 6.13 kernel.

Finally, yaay!
Thanks to Wolfgang Müller.

My GPU Zero RPM stayed on until 60°C and considering I lost my laptop to heat just last year, this was pinching me now and then.

The drive heats up with use

Could you just get a small fan?

Of course a drive heats up with use.

As I explained in the wall of text above, it was heating when NOT in use.
The reason being that after wake from S3 Sleep, it was turning on and not turning back off (as it should because it was NOT MOUNTED).

I just need to check which process is responsible for the SSD's power state management (systemd maybe?) and then see if something can be changed.
