- Storage Capacity: 4000 gigabytes (Measured in megabytes (MB), gigabytes (GB) and terabytes (TB), this is the amount available for storing files, music, movies, photos and more. The total includes the capacity of the hard disk drive and solid state drive if both are included on the computer.)
- Storage Drive Type: SSD (Traditional, mechanical hard disk drives are the most common type of storage because they're relatively inexpensive and offer huge capacities. However, they also generate both noise and heat. Solid state drives, also known as SSDs, are many times faster than hard disk drives and have no moving parts to wear out, but typically offer less capacity for the same price.)
- Maximum Read Speed: 7450 megabytes per second (The greatest speed at which the device can read information; for example, opening files.)

5 Star - Easy Install & Set Up
What a night and day difference in terms of speed and obviously space. I installed this into my Alienware Desktop from a 512 SSD for boot up and 1 TB HDD drive to the Samsung 990 Pro 4TB SSD and I absolutely love it and truly notice a difference in speed on my PC. Extremely easy to install and surprisingly so easy to clone my original operating system (512 SSD) drive to the 4 TB using the Samsung Magician app. I absolutely love the difference and actually was so impressed I bought a second one since I had an empty slot that I now use for games and work and the other for boot up and software. I purchased my heat sinks elsewhere as I read they can get hot, but I’ve had zero issues with temp and have had them installed for a good amount of time for a strong sample size. You can even monitor the temp and speed using the Samsung Magician App. On the Desktop photo, you’ll see the two red rectangular shapes just right of the RGB ram stacked one above the other and the second photo is the Samsung Magician app. Definitely worth the money if you’re looking to upgrade.

Blazing Fast Performance and Massive Storage!
The Samsung 990 PRO 4TB is an absolute powerhouse when it comes to internal SSDs. Whether you're a gamer, content creator, or just someone looking to future-proof your setup, this drive delivers on all fronts. Speed & Performance Thanks to PCIe Gen 4x4 NVMe technology, the 990 PRO offers incredible read/write speeds (up to 7,450 MB/s read and 6,900 MB/s write). Boot times, app launches, and file transfers are virtually instantaneous. You can feel the speed difference compared to older Gen 3 drives or even some other Gen 4 options. Massive 4TB Storage With 4TB of space, it comfortably handles large game libraries, 4K+ video projects, and massive media files without breaking a sweat. Perfect for professionals working with huge datasets or gamers who hate uninstalling titles to make room for new ones. Thermal Efficiency Samsung’s Heatsink model (if you get that version) keeps temps well-managed, even under heavy loads. It stays cool and quiet, which is a huge plus for long gaming or rendering sessions. Easy Installation & Software Installation is simple, especially with Samsung's Magician software. It provides firmware updates, performance benchmarks, and cloning tools. It’s very user-friendly and adds extra value to the overall package. Pros: Blazing-fast PCIe Gen 4 performance Huge 4TB capacity Excellent reliability and endurance Solid thermal control (especially with the heatsink version) Samsung Magician software is a great bonus Cons: Premium price tag (but justified by performance) Requires a motherboard with PCIe Gen 4 support to unlock full potential
