Axagon CLR-M2FAN Copper heatsink with fan for single-sided and double-sided M.2 SSD disks, size 2280, height 13 mm.

AXAGON CLR-M2FAN is a copper heatsink with an integrated fan designed to cool high-performance M.2 SSDs, including NVMe drives. The universal cooler fits M.2 cards sized 22 x 80 mm and includes thermally conductive pads that allow installation on both single-sided and double-sided M.2 SSDs.

Advantages

The ribbed copper core with an aluminum body and an included metal bracket improves heat dissipation from the M.2 SSD, lowering operating temperature by up to 30 °C. An internal PWM-controlled fan with a 4-pin connector enables automatic speed regulation based on temperature, reducing noise and energy use when full cooling is not required. Supports SATA (AHCI) and NVMe (PCI-Express) M.2 drives and works with M.2 slots on motherboards as well as with AXAGON adapters.

Key specifications

• Compatibility: M.2 drives, size 22 x 80 mm
• Supported types: SATA (AHCI) and NVMe (PCI-Express)
• Supports single-sided and double-sided M.2 SSDs
• Heatsink core: ribbed copper; body: aluminum
• Fan: PWM speed control, 4-pin power connector
• Thermal pads: 3 pieces, combinable for different SSD heights
• Dimensions: 76 x 24 x 13 mm
• Weight: 45 g

How to use

Attach the appropriate combination of the supplied thermally conductive pads to the heatsink to match the SSD thickness, place the heatsink over the M.2 module and secure it with the metal bracket and included mounting hardware. Connect the fan's 4-pin power cable to a motherboard header that supports PWM control to allow automatic speed regulation. Ensure the heatsink is aligned so the copper core contacts the SSD surface for optimal heat transfer.

Recommendations

Use the CLR-M2FAN in systems with high-load NVMe or SATA M.2 drives or in compact builds where airflow is limited. Verify motherboard compatibility for a 22 x 80 mm M.2 slot and a 4-pin PWM fan connector before installation.
