Customer Ratings & Reviews

I ordered the item online for pick up at a Portland, OR store. I went to pick up the item and headed to work afterwards. I opened the item two days later to install it on my computer. I found out that the item had a piece of motherboard or something. The actual item was not there. I was scammed. I decided to take the item back to best buy to see what they could do. I knew this was going to be a hassle. I also knew this was going to be hard to prove. I talked to the store supervisor/Manager and he said he couldn't do anything. He instead told me to call a number. I called it and sent the item back so I could get a refund. Weeks passed by and I didn't get a refund and they sent me the box back. This is a lesson learned to always check your items before leaving the store. I got scammed. I recommend not to buy from best buy and if you do just open your items at the store.

My experience with best buy and this ssd is that the 2 first broke and stopped working, I changed it in my local bestbuy the 2nd time and it came out to be a Patriot 128GB, I returned it and exchanged it for another one and when test it came out as 4TB but no description as Samsung, I did allthe troubleshoot to find out that is another fake, checking online I came out with alibaba 990PRO and it look exactly like the drive I have but the sticker said samsung but it does not look legit. The back also does not have the samsung label. If you are shopping locally open it first and check that the back of the ssd has the samsung labels

I purchased this SSD at bestbuy Lincoln, Nebraska. I specifically needed the 4 terrabyte drive and i expected to get every bit of that 4 terabytes for storage. #1 the drive was not formatted right out of the box. #2 it is "NOT" 4 terabytes. It is only 3.7 terabytes. That isnt just a couple of gigabytes short of 4 terabytes, thats 300 gigabytes short of being 4 terabytes. 300 gigabytes is alot of space i paid good money for and did not recieve.

best buy defrauded me for price matching another purchased item. overall rating of poor is because i'm a long time best buy customer that's tired of their discriminarion. I will review all my reviews as poor until another merchant complains to best buy as to how they treat their customers.

Got it — here’s a shorter, more casual version: --- The Samsung 990 Pro 4TB is seriously fast and has tons of space. My PC boots in seconds, games load instantly, and I don’t have to worry about running out of storage anytime soon. Super easy to install and runs smooth even with heavy use. Totally worth it if you want speed

My Experience with the Samsung 990 Pro 4TB SSD: Solid Performance and Room to Breathe After adding the Samsung 990 Pro 4TB SSD, I’ve finally solved my storage issues. Before this, I was constantly uninstalling games to make room for new ones. Now, with 4TB of space, I’ve got more freedom to install multiple titles without worrying about space, and it’s been a massive improvement in how I manage my games. Real-World Speed vs. What’s Advertised Samsung boasts some insane speeds for this SSD—up to 7,450 MB/s for reads—but in my experience, I’m getting around 7,100 MB/s, which is still seriously fast. Write speeds fluctuate a bit, but overall, it performs really well. Games like Cyberpunk 2077 load so much faster than on my previous drive, which means I spend more time playing and less time staring at loading screens. Sure, it’s not hitting the exact advertised speeds, but honestly, I’m more than happy with how quick it is. 4TB of Space: No More Juggling Games For me, the storage capacity has been the real game-changer. I no longer have to worry about uninstalling games to make room for new ones, which was a constant headache before. Now I’ve got 4TB, and I’ve been able to install most of my game library with room to spare. No more deleting titles or playing the uninstall-install dance every time there’s a big update or a new release. Thermal Management: Check Your Cooling Setup One thing to note: I didn’t get the heatsink version of the 990 Pro because my motherboard already has an inbuilt heatsink. It’s been handling the heat like a champ, and the SSD stays cool even during long gaming sessions or when I’m transferring large files. If your motherboard doesn’t have an inbuilt heatsink, I’d definitely recommend either getting the heatsink version of the 990 Pro or buying an aftermarket heatsink to make sure the drive doesn’t overheat during heavy use. Everyday Performance Outside of gaming, this SSD has sped up pretty much everything. Whether I’m downloading large game updates or moving files around, everything just works faster. The write speeds might vary, but I haven’t run into any major slowdowns. It’s been a solid upgrade for both gaming and everyday use. Final Thoughts Overall, the Samsung 990 Pro 4TB is exactly what I needed. The speed is more than enough for gaming and everyday tasks, and the huge storage means I don’t have to think about what’s installed or what needs to be deleted. Just make sure you’ve got the right cooling setup—if your motherboard doesn’t have an inbuilt heatsink, go for the version with a heatsink or pick up an aftermarket one to keep things cool.

I have purchased several Samsung NVME drives over the years. I really love the 990 pro series. They are extremely fast, dependable, and very easy to format and install. I really like the 4tb size, which allows for plenty of room for game installation on my PC. The Samsung magician software is also an excellent app. I can monitor, benchmark, erase, and keep the firmware updated on my drives very easily. Can’t recommend this drive enough.

Samsung makes a consistently great SSD and this is no exception. Plenty of fast storage in a single drive. Installed it and it was recognized immediately with no fuss. If you need the space and the speed, this is the one to get.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Upgraded to the Samsung 990 PRO 4TB and couldn't be happier. This drive is insanely fast — boot times, game loads, and large file transfers are near-instant. Samsung's reputation for reliability holds strong here, and the 4TB capacity means I no longer worry about running out of space. Whether you're gaming, editing 4K video, or just want top-tier performance, this NVMe drive delivers. It's cool, quiet, and incredibly efficient. Worth every penny.

My Son's 2TB SSD on his ASUS ROG Zephyrus Dou 16 laptop was almost full. I installed this 4TB SSD as a second drive. Now he has plenty of fast storage. Everything is working great! If you don't have a heat sink, (which most laptops don't), don't forget to install a thermal pad. On my desktop, I ordered the same SSD but with the heat sink. This is a very fast, reliable, and well-made product. I have used the Samsung 990 Pro SSD in several of my laptops and desktops (2TB & 4TB).

The 990 pro is a very fast nvme drive and I would recommend a heatsink to keep it running smoothly and extend its lifespan. If you game or run intensive applications, this drive is a must. So far these drives have served me well with no problems whatsoever, just make sure to use the Samsung magician app to keep the firmware updated which is very important and kudos to Samsung for supporting their products.

A solid drive, and it is still going strong. The read write times are quick and it handles loading the more resource intensive games [e.g. Starfield] pretty well. I made the mistake of getting a Corsair MP 600 ssd and it was slow and just nothing but problems. This drive does what I need it to do and it was pretty easy to move my stuff from a WD external HDD to this. A bit pricey, but in my mind it is worth the investment, and given that there is an Asurion repair shop near by, they can handle the repairs[but only if it is still under manufacturer's warranty].

Samsung is always solid in terms of performance and reliability. This 4TB version holds plenty of games, and even though it's not Gen 5, it's plenty fast enough for the most demanding games.

Absolutely incredible. Sooooo fast. Installed with ease. Worked immediately once set up and runs perfectly. Downloads moving at super speed. Love it

This has been an incredible save. I bought a Mac Mini and adding Mac storage is terrible for the wallet. However, with the UGREEN Mac Mini Doc as not only an additional port but as additional storage (which takes the Samsung 990 Pro), it has allowed my brain to not think of storage -- at least for now. Things are running great!

Great storage, reliability, fast, and great value. I trust Samsung hard drives to be the work horses of my comp builds.

The storage, speed, and performance are there. We had to move some items around to get them working but it was a great purchase.

This is hands down the best upgrade I’ve made to my PC (it works great for PS5 too). The 4TB capacity is insane, and the load times are instant now. Installation was easy. I only buy storage drives from Best Buy to ensure I’m getting a genuine product, and as always, shipping was fast and secure.

So far so good. Have put this into my new rig and the speeds have been great. Noticed that so many of my games just load up fast and consistently too and allows me to hold a lot more games without having to uninstall and reinstall.

Hands down the absolute best SSD on the market right now. Samsung hit it out of the ballpark with this one. A verity of storage sizes. I have three of these installed on my PC, PS5 w/ heat sink and Legion Go S. Blistering speed. If you want the best in performance then this is it. I guarantee you won’t be disappointed. I recommend this to anyone who’s looking for the absolute best.
