Customer Ratings & Reviews

Excellent Exterior Solid State Drive operates at maximum speed allowed with SATA anything faster would require being installed internally, and since my reason for purchasing the drive is for a recovery image and additional digital photos, video, document storage, internal installation isn't required, plus the hardware motherboard on my device is obsolete doesn't have the updates motherboard that would be able to fully utilize this drives potential

This is so much quicker than what I was originally running. Easy to install.

My primary pcie 4.0 ssd running windows 11 and system files. Excellent read and write speeds for the generation that it is. Does everything i need and ask it to do without fail.

I have been using this ssd for a little bit and it works great. I bought it to put in an ssd enclosure and it works in there.

First time buying storage and was easy to install. Great value when on sale

Crazy fast hard drive! The speed difference is insane and the cost doesn’t completely blow the bank! Great ssd and it runs really cool temps

Good price and quality part. So much faster than cabled drives.

Easy attachment for my Mac mini stand. Just put it in, clear it and name it. Super simple.

Worked seamlessly in my laptop. Originally tried another brand, but wasn't compatible with my laptop.

I recently installed the Samsung 990 EVO 1TB SSD in my system, and I’m really impressed with the performance. The speeds are super fast—up to 5,000MB/s—and everything from booting up to loading apps feels a lot quicker now. Installation was easy, and it works perfectly with my Gen 4 setup. It's also Gen 5 ready, which makes it a future-proof choice. Overall, very happy with this upgrade!

This drive exceeded my expectations. Extremely fast read/write speeds, stays cool under load, and installation was straightforward. Perfect for gaming and heavy workloads. Definitely worth the upgrade performance is smooth and consistent. Highly recommend for anyone looking to boost their system

Great ssd and easy to install with app easy to use. Love samsung ssds all aroundwith great reliability and speed.

Great price and sureshot product that lasts. I have used various brands of NVMe SSDs for 50+ PCs I manage, and Samsung has not failed so far, and their price for EVO line has become very compatitive. I have used some of these for an external enclosure to transfer large files and using USB type C made it really fast.

Extended my memory with super fast read/write speeds! This thing is easy to install and easy to use!

Needed more space as I was still using a 1TB from my previous computer. Transferring data was a breeze and it has worked great for everyday use

### Review: Samsung 990 EVO SSD 1TB The Samsung 990 EVO SSD 1TB is a fantastic upgrade. With PCIe Gen 4x4 | Gen 5x2 support and speeds up to 5,000MB/s, it significantly boosts system performance. Installation was easy, and the SSD fits perfectly in the M.2 slot. It's reliable, fast, and worth every penny for the performance it delivers. Highly recommended!

Runs great! Fast speeds! Easy to install and instructions made sense!

Perfect replacement SSD for my 3 year old Dell laptop that only had a 256 gb at purchase. Easy install. Seems to be fast for everyday use (cannot say one way or another about gaming). Other reviews suggest it is reliable, and about one month in and no problems. Good value as well

I bought this on sale for about $69. I needed a back up hard drive that was cloned from my primary drive for my new Windows 11 desktop. It is not the PRO version and thus does not have a heat sink. It also does not come with the M2 screw needed to secure it into the NVME slot. Happily, the manufacturer of my desktop (Dell) included the screw in the empty NVME slot. When I initially tried to clone the primary drive to this Samsung drive, the software told me it couldn’t clone an encrypted drive. As it turns out, many current computer makers encrypt their primary drives. Using the Windows 11 software, one is able to un-encrpyt the primary drive, allowing the cloning process to proceed. Once the primary drive was cloned to my new Samsung SSD, I encrypted the primary drive. I tried using the Samsung drive as my primary drive and it worked flawlessly. After that I removed the Samsung drive and stored it in a secure location. From time to time I’ll have to re-clone my primary drive to this Samsung drive. I realize this is not an elegant solution for back up, but I’m happy with this process. Oh, I did verify the read and write speeds and yes, they were equal to or slightly higher than 5000 MBPS as measured by the Samsung Magician software.

So far, this drive has worked wonderfully. My computer had a physical disk drive and it failed. I knew it was heading for a fall, but it was kind of sudden. However, I brought it to the Geek Squad and they fixed it. Hurray! But it only lasted a month or so. So, I went back and they suggested a new drive, SSD. They recovered all of my data and installed this. WOW! What a difference! The old drive was problematic from the start, but this is very fast!
