NVMe Critical Composite Temperature Time

NVMe Critical Composite Temperature Time is a cumulative SMART / Health log duration in minutes of controller operation with Composite Temperature at or above the critical composite-temperature threshold.

NVMe Base 2.3 Figure 210 defines the threshold as CCTEMP from Identify Controller; if CCTEMP is zero, this timer is always zero regardless of Composite Temperature. [1] It is separate from Warning Composite Temperature Time, from HCTM action timers measured in seconds, and from the current Critical Warning temperature bit, which can reflect an over-temperature or under-temperature condition.
