    Works as expected. Using SSD for Steam gaming storage and I tend to install & uninstall games all the time so I needed an SSD that can handle all that no problem. No issues so far.

    A surprisingly great SSD. It is another solid Samsung SSD that was easy to install and use. This is being used primarily for data and program storage but would certainly work as an OS drive.

    I bought this SSD because it was on sale at a price point that was too good to pass up. I’m using it as my boot drive, and if I had a better motherboard, I would’ve gone with the “Pro” SSD. However, as my motherboard is a bit outdated and does not support the faster interfaces, this SSD was perfect for the price. I was surprised by how cool it runs under heavy usage. I did not use a heatsink for it, but I did not feel I needed one from the data I monitored. With that said, I think this SSD is good depending on your usage. Go with the “Pro” if you have a newer motherboard that supports the faster speeds. Go with the “Evo” if you want to stay within a certain budget and still have a fast/efficient SSD.

    Loving the ssd so far. Its fast, responsive, and reliable. Loading times are non-existence because of the speed and power of this drive. Definitely a step up from the samsung evo 870 ssd drive.

    Samsung never disappoints and this EVO 990 is no exception. Easy to swap out with the stock NVMe from vendor and instantly the system was snappier and a ton more space
