The Biostar M500 features smart LED indicators on the heat sink cover to inform the user about temperature and data activity. This system displays the temperature in real time at three different levels: green for temperatures below 50 ° C, yellow for temperatures between 50 ° C and 65 ° C, and red for temperatures above 65 ° C. As for the data transmission light, it shows the status in blue light for the access status and a green light for the PCIe Gen 2 / Gen 3 transmission mode.

Biostar M500 mounts a diamond-shaped heat sink, which provides efficient cooling to maintain performance and prevent thermal throttling. The heatsink also gives it a cutting edge look, perfect for any gaming device. Its power consumption is only 1.7W in reading operations, which helps improve the autonomy of laptops.

This new Biostar M500 is one of the most interesting proposals for users looking for an NVMe SSD with good features. Price has not been announced.
