I wonder if this is designed like the DockStar.

Can you try to open it, and place a Real Heatsink(tm) on the CPU,
and run a long test that way?

The Dockstar's CPU, when opened, certainly gets too hot when copying
really fast from the disk.

I've not had time to test whether the heatsink that's cleverly hacked
into the-case's cap is enough for heavy duty.
