Ask HN: Large USB drives that don't get blazing hot?

I just transferred like 3mb of image data from a "256GB Sandisk Extreme PRO USB 3.1" and my goodness was it ever hot for transferring such a small amount of files over such a short period of time imho. To the point that I started worrying about it's trustworthiness... surely that much wear and tear with heating up/cooling down over time can't be good? Would gladly settle for a much "slower" USB drive if it did not as hot and would hopefully be a bit more reliable longterm?
