Those of you that use SSDs for sentry mode. Does it get extremely hot?

Ive been using a 2.5inch WD Passport drive (platter drive) for a while and it had no issues. Didnt heat up too crazy (just got warm). I decided to switch to an SSD, and oh my gosh. Even just driving around with 'dashcam' mode on it gets really warm. When car is parked under the sun with sentry on it would hurt to touch the enclosure that the SSD is in (its an aluminum enclosure).

Does everyone else's SSD get really hot?

PS - For clarification this is an M.2 SSD (not an SD card).
