Asked 8 months ago by hhecla.

• A:Answer hhecla: The Samsung 990 EVO PLUS SSD 2TB uses a PCIe Gen 4x4 or 5x2 interface, while the MSI MAG Z390 Tomahawk motherboard supports PCIe Gen 3.0 x4 for its M.2 slots. Although the 990 EVO PLUS is backward compatible with PCIe Gen 3.0, it will operate at reduced speeds compared to its full potential on a PCIe Gen 4.0 slot. Therefore, you can use the 990 EVO PLUS SSD with your motherboard, but you may not get the maximum performance out of it. - Samsung Memory

Q: QuestionWill this work with a PS5

Asked 6 months ago by James.

• A:Answer James: The 990 EVO Plus 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. However, 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. - Samsung Memory

Q: QuestionMy current Samsung laptop has a liteon cv3-8d256, which is a m.2 SATA drive. Can I replace it with this? Don't know if the board will do NVME, so will this drive operate SATA?

Asked 8 months ago by Anonjas.

• A:Answer Anonjas: The Samsung 990 EVO Plus SSD is an NVMe drive, which means it uses the PCIe interface rather than the SATA interface. Unfortunately, NVMe drives are not backward compatible with SATA, so the 990 EVO Plus will not operate in SATA mode. - Samsung Memory
