  1. I recently bought a NanoPi M4V2 with the SATA HAT extension. I'm planning on using it to build a personal NAS. However, I have some concerns about the SATA HAT. The chip on it turns out to get very warm when idle despite the installed heat sink. I haven't been able to measure the exact temperature, but I'm unable to put my finger on the heat sink for more than a few seconds. I'm running the following specs: NanoPi M4 V2 Armbian buster with Linux 5.4.49-rockchip64 SATA HAT for NanoPi M4 1x 2.5" Seagate Barracuda HDD (1TB) 12V/2A Charger with Locking (see image) Under this post someone suggested to replace the original thermal pads with copper shims and thermal paste. I ordered MX-4 thermal paste and copper shims on Amazon, but in the meantime I wanted to know if anyone else has experienced similar issues with the SATA HAT? Also, I would like to know if there's a way to obtain the temperature of the SATA HAT chip via CLI? Or is this only possible for the CPU?
