Customer Ratings & Reviews

The first one I ordered came delivered from the Best Buy returns center (but was supposed to be new), and the envelope it arrived in was smashed and scuffed as if it had been stepped on. The inner box holding the product was also smashed but the drive itself looked ok (no visible defects). On installation, it started throwing blue screens so I took it back to the store and initiated a replacement - which also had to be ordered; but this time I had it delivered to the store for pickup. It likely had micro-cracks or damage underneath the heatsync that was not visible to the naked eye. The replacement I got (two weeks later) was in perfect condition and has been working great in my gaming system for over a month; no blue screens - and I got it just in time (before all the NVMe drive prices shot through the roof).

It’s been almost 2 month since I’ve had the 990 Pro 2TB and aside from installing getting a bit annoying because a stripped screw -no fault of the 990 itself- it’s been a flawless experience. It’s sleek, pleasing on the eyes, and most importantly: fast. It’s rated as 5900 GB/s read write speed by the PlayStation 5 internal rating and it moves like it. I highly recommend as I’m very satisfied with it. I have 10 games installled and still got 1.5TB left of space.

Works, fast, cool. Easy install, good price. Had no issues with it, fit in my case with no problems.

Like many PS5 owners, we constantly ran into the frustrating issue of storage limitations—having to delete multiple games just to make room for one new download. Given the price of the console, this felt like a major oversight on Sony’s part. Thankfully, this internal hard drive with a heat sink turned out to be the perfect solution! The installation was incredibly easy, requiring minimal effort. Now, we finally have the freedom to keep all of our favorite games stored without the hassle of constantly managing space. The performance is top-notch—downloads now complete in just a few minutes, and the system runs smoothly without any hiccups. If you’re tired of the PS5’s storage constraints, this little device is a must-have. Highly recommended!

More than enough storage, very fast, easy to install. Would definitely recommend.

I had no issues with this product. Ive had it for a few months and it works great!

good product, good services, works great, easy to install, plug it into the computer and it just worked, almost too easy, needed this for an emergency Windows reinstall

Works flawlessly and the fact it has a heatsink is cool

It's fast easy to install and it works amazing with my games

While the SSD is a bit thick(physically) and kinda bulges the bottom of my laptop, I have had literally no issues with using this storage. I do recreational music production and I run my VSTis off this thing. Its been fantastic for rendering my audio projects.

Easy to install no more deleting games! Fast and easy.

990 PROs are top performers. This SSD was installed in a PC that has its own heat-sink, so that feature was irrelevant. Purchased because it was on sale for $20 less than standard version. Might be useful for PS5 owners even tho 990s are known for cool operation.

The Samsung 990 PRO 2TB Internal SSD with its PCIe Gen 4x4 NVMe interface and built-in heatsink is undoubtedly a powerhouse for gaming consoles like the PS5 and Xbox. Its massive storage capacity and lightning-fast speeds make it an ideal upgrade for console gamers seeking enhanced performance and reduced load times. However, as a PC user, I found the built-in heatsink less appealing. Most motherboards come with their own heatsinks, which often offer a more streamlined and aesthetically pleasing look. Consequently, I opted to return this SSD and chose a model without the integrated heatsink for my PC setup. For console gamers, this SSD is a fantastic choice, but PC builders might prefer something that better complements their system's aesthetics.

Really easy to install. Plenty of storage and I love that the heating is integrated.

The quality and price of this SSD are unbeatable. The 2 TB of extra storage is perfect for a young gamer. My son used to delete games just to make space for new games. Not anymore! Copying games and other saved data on the PS5 is easy and fast. Installing and formatting the drive was a breeze. The reliability and longevity of this manufacturers products made my choice of purchasing this SSD easy and without a second thought.

Quick and easy install. Excellent way to extend your storage space.

Easy install and set up. Speeds have been noticeably faster then the 3800mb I had before it.

The Samsung 990 SSD has exceeded my expectations. Snagging it at a great price from Best Buy was a win. Its top-tier speed, coupled with the built-in heat sink, makes it a standout choice for PS5 users. The installation process was a breeze, and the overall performance has significantly boosted my gaming experience. An excellent investment for those seeking top-notch SSD performance.

Perfect for the ps5 slim, got extra space for other games now and was easy to install

Very fast, very stable, runs cooler with less throttling, fits in a standard M2 socket. Heat is the enemy of all electronics. It pays to buy one with a permanent heat sink.
