    Abstract: Systems, apparatuses and methods may provide for technology that includes a solid state drive (SSD) having an enclosure, a non-volatile memory (NVM) device, a device controller coupled the NVM device, a capacitor, a backup voltage line coupled to the capacitor, and a safety assembly. The safety assembly may include a timer circuit including an input node coupled to the backup voltage line, a reset node, and an output node, an indicator circuit coupled to the output node of the timer circuit, and a temperature comparator circuit coupled to the reset node of the timer circuit, wherein if a temperature of the enclosure exceeds a threshold while a backup voltage is present on the backup voltage line, the temperature comparator circuit causes the timer circuit to trigger light pulses from the indicator circuit.
