Greetings all.

I am currently waiting for the Dan A4 to arrive. M.2 heat solution was one of my main concerns, as I need to process a lot of small files as fast as possible. I am planning to use 2 Evo 970 2TB NVME front and back, and cooling is a concern as they seem to be susceptible to heat and their performance suffer.

Not having the case in front of me, it's difficult for me to see if this is going to work or not, but has anyone considered an extension cable for the M.2 slot and mount the card somewhere with better air flow? I know this case will be as cramped as it can be, but M.2 cards being so slim, I was wondering if this could be a possibility? I've seen this on eBay.
