I have the 128GB version of the following, installed in my desktop:

The 512GB version is currently selling for $49 USD.

This is the Supported Power States shown with smartctl:

No need to put a thermocouple on this one. nvme smart-log provides the sensor temperature of the drive.

EDIT: idling, this drive measured 38 deg C. Active (writing video), it measured 45 deg C.
