    Samsung makes the best SSDs hands down. I have used them in over 30 computers in the last 15 years with no issues at all. One even has 24TB written to it. Sure, other competitors are catching up, but they just cannot top the performance, reliability, and longevity. I have tested the 990 Pro up against the 970 Evo, 980 Pro (Gen 4), Western Digital SN810 (Gen 4), and Crucial (Gen 4). Just make sure your 990 Pro firmware is up to date! The prior issues with some of the 980 Pros and 990 Pros was solved with the firmware update. I have recently installed 990 Pros in 4 HP Omen laptops and tested the above mentioned competitors in the same laptops. The others can come close to beating the 990 Pro on a segment or 2 on CrystalDisk, but there is a significant difference in the 990 Pro. The Western Digital did surprisingly well. I have included a pic of a WD test and a 990 Pro test. Neither were enhanced, optimized, or set to performance. Just a straight out of the box test on laptops with less than 30 minutes of up time. Side Note: The UserBenchmark test had a hard time reading the 990 Pro for some reason, but was able to test the others just fine.

    Great SSD m.2 for the money very very fast even when using a pc that only have PCI-E gen 3 loads up games very quickly start up time is way faster than my old ssd definitely a noticeable difference when playing games and their load times haven’t had issues also if you do buy make sure you download Samsung magician and UPDATE IMMEDIATELY to make sure that the old firmware doesnt shorten the life of it since it’s a know problem with these m.2 980 and 990 evo

    Works good! I didn’t even need a heat sink because I have a really good motherboard. I’ve had my rig going for about a month & no issues.

    Purchase lots of 4.0 drives including many different manufacturers as I operate large raid arrays. Not going to lie, these drives are incredible and with testing 12 drives thru 3x 4.0 PCIe slots with CPU/Software based raid 0 stripe and these are the numbers. Definition of RAW awesomeness Tested other manufacturers and while they are pretty close I wasn't seeing any drop in either top end or sustained reads or writes so throughly impressed. And oh boy, talk about IOPS, this has more than anything I've run, infact a lot more legs on it than any other controller. Samsung did a great job! Net findings: WELL WORTH THE MONEY

    Extremely fast NVME drive. It also runs much cooler than the WD SN850X I also have. Earlier drives had a firmware issue but the one I bought had the latest firmware already.
