    I've recently installed a MyDigitalSSD Smart series 64GB SATA-III mSATA card on my dv6 as cache (this is also known as ADATA SX300). I'm getting kinda worried because whenever I use the laptop (normal operation) it hits about 70C. Oddly enough, when I game, it reaches 90C (monitoring using HWInfo).

    Are you guys experiencing similar temps? I don't think there should have been any thermal assemblies anywhere in the vicinity of the SSD, as it hardly has any room. Is it bordering on dangerous for it to be reaching that high?
