Almost perfect
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great drive especially for the black friday deal for 159. My only complaint is Samsung claims to be top of the line. The drive is expensive and a "pro" version yet they are too cheap to include a stand off and a screw so you can install the drive.

Temperamental. Doesn't always save.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sometimes it allows me to save files on it. Other times, it won't. Then again, this device is way cheaper than other memory sticks with that much memory. Guess I got what I paid for.

Thank you for purchasing the Samsung 990 PRO SSD. Samsung drives adhere to the IDEMA standard of advanced formatting, which will result in the drive appearing as less than the listed size. This is a common industry-wide standard.
The amount of space that appears to be "missing" is in fact used by the drive/card for storing firmware, metadata and spare blocks. Your operating system (Windows, Linux, etc.) will also affect the usable space -- different operating systems will use different amounts of space to store their metadata. Consequently, formatted space will always be less than unformatted space.
You can look IDEMA up online for more technical details about this standard, which is established by The International Disk Drive Equipment and Materials Association.
Please contact Samsung Memory Support directly so that we can better investigate your drive disappearing issue and assist you towards a solution or replacement.

Affordable, but what is up with the updates?
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Seems to do what I need. Still loading it. Frustrated the number of Samsung Magician software updates it requires. Seemingly one per week. Haven't seen any difference with the updates.

Samsung 990 Pro
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It should be wonderful when I get it and Asus motherboard to recognize each other.
I would recommend this to a friendBrand response from Samsung
Posted .Fallout:
I’m very sorry for the difficulties you’ve experience. To get your Samsung 990 PRO SSD and Asus motherboard to recognize each other, follow these steps:
Update BIOS: Make sure your motherboard's BIOS is up to date. Manufacturers often release updates to improve compatibility with new hardware.
Enable NVMe in BIOS: Power on your PC and enter the BIOS setup (usually by pressing Del or F2 during startup). Navigate to the storage configuration section and ensure that the M.2 slot is set to use NVMe. Save and exit the BIOS.
Initialize the SSD in Windows: Once in Windows, open Disk Management (you can search for it in the Start menu). You should see the new SSD listed as unallocated space. Right-click on it and choose to initialize the disk. Follow the prompts to create a new partition and format the drive.
Should you need help or have additional questions, please contact Samsung Memory Support directly.

Disappointed in the Samsung SSD
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Owned many Samsung products including many of my consoles using their ssd and had great expectations on this ssd. Bought the 2tb Samsung ssd to install in a Asus gaming laptop that was purchased the same day. The ssd would show up on bios after the install and formatting it. When you restart the computer, the SSD would not show in the file explorer. Only after restarting it consecutively 5-6 times it would finally pop up in the file explorer only for it to disappear in the next boot up of the computer. Never had an issue with Samsung product until I purchased this ssd. Retuned it a couple days later and bought a Crucial 4TB ssd instead and has met expectations that I wished the Samsung would’ve met.

Might work, might not
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.There may be growing pains with this SSD. My new asus Zephryus M16 refused to recognize it in windows even though it was visible in bios. After multiple reseats it finally recognized once and initialized in windows fine, only to not be visible again after the next reboot. Internet search shows people with various motherboards, computers, and laptops have the same problem. Is it samsung's fault or computer manufacturers? Don't know, but I swapped for a WD Black SN850X and haven't had a single issue

Bricked in less than a year
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Less than a year and it bricked. I've had so many Samsung drives over the years with zero issues (some running 7 years+). Maybe a fluke? Performance was amazing when it worked.

Piece of junk
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I originally bought this for the value. And was Going to use it to expand the The storage space in my brand new computer. 2 Days after I installed it and loaded it, it failed. I had to return it purchase a different. SSD and start all over. The interesting point is that I was hesitant at first. Because I know of the problems. The sand disk has had with these but I went ahead anyway. I guess you live and you learn. I should have followed my gut in the first place and purchased a different brand.
