Top of the line performance. I purchased two 1TB 990's for my PC build and they're blazing fast. No issues whatsoever.

I installed the Samsung 990 Pro 1TB SSD, and it’s an absolute game-changer for speed. This drive is seriously fast and handles everything I need without breaking a sweat.
Performance: Speeds are top-notch. With read speeds up to 7,450 MB/s and write speeds up to 6,900 MB/s, I noticed a huge difference in load times, especially with big files and demanding programs. It makes a big impact on gaming, rendering, and any high-performance tasks.
Installation: It’s easy to install with the M.2 form factor, so setup was quick and smooth. Popped it right into my system without hassle.
Efficiency: Even with all that speed, it doesn’t run hot or use much power, which is great for long sessions. No worries about overheating here.
This drive is worth every penny for anyone looking to boost their system’s performance. The 990 Pro delivers on speed and reliability—perfect for a high-performance setup.

I intentionally purchased this item to replace a faulty m.2 drive. It is fast, easily installed and has performed perfectly. Personally, I believe that the product is worth the price.

I recently upgraded my system with the Samsung 990 PRO 1TB NVMe SSD, and the difference is night and day. Boot times are almost instant, applications launch without hesitation, and large files transfer at lightning speed. Samsung really delivered on performance here—this drive takes full advantage of PCIe Gen 4, and you can feel it right away whether you’re gaming, editing videos, or running demanding applications.
Installation was straightforward, and with Samsung Magician software, monitoring health and optimizing performance is simple. The build quality feels solid, and I trust Samsung’s reputation for reliability and endurance when it comes to SSDs.
If you’re looking for a top-tier SSD that balances speed, efficiency, and long-term reliability, the Samsung 990 PRO is absolutely worth it. I bought mine at Best Buy, and I couldn’t be happier with this purchase. It’s the kind of upgrade that makes your whole PC feel brand new again.

Excellent speed and price, very easy to install with basic tools. I cloned a smaller Kingston hard drive to this one using the Kingston software and everything worked perfectly. I would recommend this product to anyone looking for more storage or building a pc.

Super fast SSD. Esay to install and works perfectly with Samsung magician software. The price point was pretty reasonable too. My only drawback is wishing I got a larger size drive...I would recommend

This is a very high-quality and fast NVME. I have a 1 TB installed as my boot drive, and a 2 TB to install games. I have used Samsung SSD’s for years and have never been disappointed. Plus, I got this at a great price. I’m still at maze to how quickly my computer boots, and how fast and smooth my games and apps run. Can’t recommend this NVME drive enough.

My computer has been wonky ever since I got it a little over a year ago. I bought it pre-built since I didn’t have any computer knowledge. After trying everything I could to help my computer stop stuttering, including checking hard drive malfunctions, I realized that I had a bad M.2 SSD. I scoured Best Buy and found this product. Ever since, I haven’t had any issues with my disk overloading, and my games have been running so smoothly. Highly recommend this product for it’s price and quality.

My computer was slow, the 990PRO was installed by BB Techs and I was truly amazed by the increased speed and response time. I was prepared to upgrade my computer, however with the 990PRO, I have a new / faster computer, great product without spending thousands on a new product! Highly recommended! Very satisfied!! HK

I installed the Samsung 990 PRO 1TB as a second drive in my PC, and the performance has been outstanding. Setup was quick and painless, and the drive was instantly recognized by the system. Read and write speeds are extremely fast, making it perfect for storing games, large files, and demanding applications.
Load times are noticeably shorter, and file transfers are almost instant compared to my older SSD. Temperatures stay well under control even during heavy use, and the overall system feels more responsive. Samsung’s reliability and build quality really show with this drive.
If you’re looking to upgrade your PC with a high-performance secondary NVMe drive, the 990 PRO is an excellent choice. It’s fast, stable, and absolutely worth the investment.

Samsung always makes a great product! This drive is no different - I purchased this for a laptop and it sped up my system. The Samsung magician software makes it easy to update the firmware. No complaints at all. Well worth the purchase.

Used this for an OS and cloned it via magician. Took less than a minute from a 500gb 980 pro.
After installing double check to make sure its on the newest firmware. I bought a few 2tb 990s and they were already installed with the newest firmware. Hopefully they have fixed the issue with some people reporting them dead after awhile.
The speed is good for a 1tb sized (compared to the higher space drives). In magicians peformance benchmark it did 6453/6345 read/write. My 990 2tb's are 6989/6978 read/write . I stayed with samsung cause I already have 980 evo and 850 evo ssd. So far so good.

I initially bought Crucial - P510 1TB Internal SSD PCIe Gen 5 as expansion for my son's college laptop because it was less expensive and more recent tech (Gen5) than other brands with similar capacity. After buying, I was researching fit and found that while the laptop is compatible with GEN5, it will not make use of the enhanced features and will actually generate extra heat vs. a Gen4 alternative. This may not apply to you, but after researching I bought this Samsung - 990 PRO 1TB Internal SSD PCle Gen 4x4 NVMe for $30 more. It was easy install (found I didn't even need heat shield) and works quick/great.
