Just bought one for all my lovely data. Though everytime it is plugged into my computer, i can feel the heat coming from it, even when its not exactly in use, just connected. Will it shorten its lifespan? Should I connect it only when i write on it/read from it? Its a kioxia 128gb one.

Thanks for your opinions?
