Do not get the heatsink version. It won't fit in the Framework laptop and there's a risk of damaging the drive should you try to remove the heatsink.

Just cut a whole where the heatsink comes out /s
Great drive for the system, especially at their current prices.
Make sure you update the firmware with the Samsung Magician software. There was a bug from release that was problematic. Most inventory now should be well past it but better safe than sorry.
Don’t get the heat sink, you’ll literally just take it off and throw it away.
I am happy with my non-heatsink 990. It's great.
I wouldn't put that in my Framework given the high power draw.
