The drive is currently in slot M.2_2. Did you try putting it in slot M.2_1?

Also, is your boot mode UEFI or CSM (Compatibility Support Module / Legacy)?

check with Samsung Magician after you install Windows 10 and if it's a bad drive contact samsung if it's brand new.

If Samsung Magician says it's fine reset your bios and maybe a bios update.

Is this the only drive you have connected while your attempting to install Windows. Unplug any other drives until after installation.

Samsung nvme ssd are hot, friends 1tb 970 Evo plus hits 103 Celsius degrees in laptop. So 85 is quite good, do You have good airflow over the heat sink?

Graphics card is not covering the disc?
Samsung says in datasheet that it should operate between 0 to 70 Celsius degrees, and I've got 970 Evo plus 500 GB and idle temps are lower than 40 degrees.

Ok, about heat sink it has thermal pad? And you removed the plastic cover for thermal pad?
About load, do You have windows 10, and it is not doing any background tasks, and if antivirus software is not working on the background?
And can you check other components temperatures? On for example hw info?

any protective plastic needs to be pilled off so the thermalpad can make proper contact you can go the step further but that may void your warranty I believe but not sure to remove the samsung sticker on the ssd to make the thermalpad touch the components directly but again look it up because believe but not sure voids your warranty...

The Samsung sticker underneath has a copper foil the length of the sticker. I wouldn't be to concerned with the sticker interfering with heat removal through the Thermal pad. I have yet to see my 970 EVO go past 70°C with no heatsink besides the sticker.

I might be wrong, and there isn't any copper on the sticker anymore.

Ouch, 85 is killing the drive, if you run samsung magician or crystal disk it will show the temp, can you post a screenshot? Mine ran about 48 degrees bare, my mobo has a spreader that reduces that to 44. With the addition of a blower fan forcing air between my gpu's my c drive 500gb 970 evo plus is at 33-34 degrees.

NVMe drives report 2 temps as you can see in @biffzinker's screenshot. The first(lowest) is the actual drive temp (samsung magician report), the one that has critical temp of 80C for samsung drives. The second its not sure of what it is, could be the drive controller or somekind of power controller so its normal to be higher.

Have you checked with HWiNFO those 2 temps?

Mine (970Pro 512GB) after a few hours of light usage

Did you try to stick a fan on the drive to see if anything changes?

Did you use the Samsung Magician to Update Firmware.? Could be that it needs to be updated and you can only do it with the proprietary App.
