So to clarify, the big chunk of metal next to the fan is purely for looks (and possibly directing airflow across the SSD) and holding the fan, and not actually a heatsink? There looks like there'd be a little contact between the base heatsink and the top plate, but not enough to facilitate any real thermal transfer. I guess that shows two things: the chipset does really not need a lot of cooling, and there should be room for most SSD heatsinks in there. Good to know!
