    Best bang for your buck

    Installing on my pc was a breeze! An extra 2tb was needed cause I filled up my standard 1tb really fast and was running out of room with new updates. The read and write speeds are extremely fast just as advertised

    Not a stick of gum!

    This nifty little M.2 SSD has served me phenomenally as a boot drive, and works really well for storing bulky programs that I need to have up and running quickly. Installs with little effort, and runs smoothly. If you have multiple slots available to you, consider snagging yourself a few of these for some extra storage.

    Extremely Hot Running SSD

    I purchased this drive to act as a storage drive in my laptop. The laptop in question is an Alienware m18 R2, so its not a cramped, high temp laptop which should be ideal for this NVME. Out of the box, the drive works just fine. Plugged it in, booted the computer and simply initialized it in Storage Manager and we were off. Installed a few games on it, played them a bit and all is well. Then I decided to run some benchmarks and tests on it to see how well it was doing, and I was a little surprised. The CrystalDiskMark test came back just fine, offering roughly the advertised performance, but it was the temperatures that caught me by surprise. When running the test, the drive reached a crazy 106c. That can't be healthy. For a sanity check I ran the same test on my Samsung 9A1 (equivalent to a 980 Pro) and got much higher speeds, but the temperatures never broke 60c. The SSDs are located right next to each other, with the same amount of airflow. The other SSD does have a small heatsink on it, but nothing that I would imagine makes 40c worth of difference.

Questions & Answers

  • Will this work for ps5 storage upgrade

    JT: The 990 EVO is not recommended for the PS5. The EVO is a Gen 5 and the PS5 does not favor Gen 5. Also, the PS5 includes Gen 4 M.2 bays and Gen 5 SSDs are not backwards compatible with Gen 4 bays. The 990 PRO is most compatible with the PS5. The 990 PRO is designed for tech enthusiasts, hardcore gamers and heavy-workload professionals who want blazing fast speed. More than 55% improvement in random performance enables faster loads for an ultimate gaming experience on PS5 and DirectStorage PC games. - Samsung Memory

  • I have a HP Pavilion Gaming Desktop TG01-2xxx and I'm thinking about upgrading the SSD and I'm wondering if this would be a good choice

    josh: Yes, the Samsung 990 EVO SSD is a potentially good choice for your HP Pavilion Gaming Desktop TG01-2xxx, but it will be limited to PCIe Gen 3 speeds because your PC's M.2 slot is only Gen 3, meaning you won't get its maximum advertised performance. The 990 EVO still offers good performance, especially for gaming, and is compatible with your system. However, a PCIe Gen 3 NVMe SSD like the Samsung 980 would be a more cost-effective alternative if you want to stay within the capabilities of your motherboard. - Samsung Memory
