Frore Airjet SSD cooling demo — actively cooled drive offers double the sustained performance

Frore Systems.

The Frore Systems AirJet solid-state cooling technology looks extremely promising, as the company's demonstrations show. Later this year more people will be able to experience it themselves, as it is coming to external SSDs from a well-known manufacturer, the company revealed at Computex.

To demonstrate the potential of its AirJet technology for solid-state drives, Frore took two identical Sabrent 8TB SSDs and installed them into two identical Orico external SSD enclosures, and then installed a pair of AirJet Mini cooling devices into one of the enclosures. The result was quite inspiring. With only passive cooling, the regular drive got to 62°C and the enclosure became extremely hot. However, in the modified enclosure with two AirJet Minis the drive temperature was only 42°C and the chassis became warm, but not hot.
