Hi, I am investigating the possibility of upgrading to a SSD for this model. I had a temperature issue upgrading a Toshiba to a hybrid SSHD so I'm trying to be careful this time. I understand SSD generally runs cooler but just want to be on the safe side. Any tips like how to go about researching this would be appreciated.
Is this a good question?

Hi,
The main difference between an (SS)HD and an SSD is that it doesn't have moving parts inside.
Because of that, SSD's will always be much cooler compared to an SSHD or HDD. But since the heat disposal and the cooling options of a notebook are limited, it will always be hotter than a traditional PC for example.
But I've done this kind of swap so many times with a lot of different types and brands of laptops, I can assure you; Under normal circumstances, heat won't be an issue
