Hi A lot of the OEM’s seem to be going with a large multi layer PCB as the “heatsink” for the lightweight Rb’s. Apparently they have enough airflow through their racks that this works ok for them. In that case, I think I’d prefer some sort of “cheap” SMD PC mount connector. Faster to assemble that way …..those nickels add up quick :)
