    All the other disk utilities I have like CrystalDiskInfo and others, do not support reading the temperature off the new NVMe SSDs.

    I just updated my Hard Disk Sentinel Pro to v4.70 and was pleased to see that it can read the NVMe SSD info / temps perfectly.

    In addition, I had a problem with my license since it was activated more than 5 times before it seems. I just contacted the developer and got a reply resetting my license literally within 5 minutes!

    Top class customer service there.

    Here are some images of the info it provides, it can also do performance tests:

    Hwinfo64 does the same for me... I have installed the 950pro driver though and maybe that helps :)

    I always install the NVMe drive but thanks for letting us know that it does the same. When I tried it 2 months ago, it didn't support the NVMe drives, it wouldn't show any temp reading

    Last I knew Samsung does not put readable temp sensors on their OEM drives.

    That's what I thought but doesn't seem to be the case.. Maybe newer revisions of these SSD's have sensors...

    The 2.5" SSDs have had temp sensors from the beginning.. My Crucial C300 SSD from 2010 had one...

    2.5" ones do, M.2 OEM ones from Samsung didn't but apparently that's changed.
