Glad to see attention brought to this issue. I recently started using these:
ASUS Hyper M.2 X16 PCIe 4.0 X4 Expansion Card Supports 4 NVMe M.2 (2242/2260/2280/22110) up to 256Gbps for AMD 3rd Ryzen sTRX40, AM4 Socket and Intel VROC NVMe Raid https://www.amazon.com/dp/B084HMHGSP/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_ZY...
If you have a spare x16 slot I highly recommend. I’ve torture tested the latest and greatest hot screaming NVMe drives with it and between the massive heat sink and fan I’ve never seen NVMe temps rise above 40c.
Supporting more than one NVMe is tricky, though. You need to make sure your motherboard supports PCIe bifurcation. Common in server motherboards and some recent high end consumer motherboards but virtually unsupported with everything else. That said if you’re experiencing NVMe throttling due to temperature it’s worthwhile for even one drive.
