    A really fast NVMe that's easily handicapped.

    This is one of the fastest SSDs out there as of this this era, but you have to read the fine print on the box and Samsung's website to see what it takes to reach 7,250 MB/s on this NVMe. This is a PCIe 4.0 - 5.0 hybrid SSD, which means you need to have the motherboard AND CPU that support the above lanes. I may have purchased this too soon since I only have a PCIe 3.0 board - but no biggie I get 3,200 - 3,600 Mb/s, which is in line with PCIe 3.0 and more than fast enough for whatever the everyday person needs. Also, I use this interchangeably with PC and Mac, so I use an enclosure. It's also handicapped by doing this - especially when going all the way with a 20 Gb/s - 40 Gb/s with USB 3.1/3.2/TB4/TB5 enclosure. You'll get speeds of just under 1000 Mb/s to just above 3000 Mb/s read/write.

    It does what it suppose to do and pretty reliable. Speed is good and only misconception is this is more like gen 4 drive instead of gen 5. So think of this as cheaper 990 pro and not 9100

    Fast, DRAM-less NVMe

    Good value (at time of purchase) NVMe SSD. Note that it is DRAM-less, which has theoretical disadvantages for write-heavy tasks. For everyday, semi-intensive use it is a fast SSD that is efficient and runs cool.

    The Samsung 990 EVO Plus 1 TB is a solid choice for those needing fast, efficient, and dependable storage—whether for gaming, content creation, or daily computing. While it may not beat flagship SSDs in every metric, it consistently delivers real-world speed and low temperatures. If you prioritize peak performance or heavy sustained workloads, the 990 Pro or other DRAM-equipped PCIe 4.0/5.0 drives might be a better fit.

    I used this 1TB drive as my main OS drive for a new build, and the system is snappy and responsive. Windows boots up almost instantly. It offers excellent performance for the price. I highly recommend this to anyone building a PC who wants speed without breaking the bank.

    this ssd actually did increase the performance and speed of my gaming pc. HOWEVER i built my pc back in 2019 and at the time M.2 SSDs were for the OS and getting a large HDD was the gaming drive. now that its cheaper i finally upgraded my gaming drive to an M.2 SSD and holy cow, what a improvement! Still a solid SSD overall i am rocking a 970 Evo for my OS drive and a 990 Evo Plus for my games now, you cant go wrong with samsung ssds!
