Thanks for the insight into M16s; it almost makes me want to enlist so I can tear one down and see what's what. (Really; I'm that curious!)

My replacement OWC Mercury Elite Pro uses an "heat dissipating (aluminum) enclosure" rather than a heatsink, and it wasn't terribly hot after a 2 hour surface scan (which would be an interesting test of your new enclosure).
