    This SSD is exactly what I was looking for. Easy to install, 4TBs of storage, and very fast. I love it!

    Does the job

    Does it's job of providing more storage. Easy to install, although it doesn't come with the needed screw - this does seem to be common across different manufacturers. It did take some puzzling to figure out how to format and access the new storage, but that appears to be more of a windows 11 weird change than ant fault of the manufacturer.

    Massive storage, really fast. Able to fit all of my VMs, games and more. It was really easy to install, just slide right in and worked immediately, no software installation required (but Samsung Magician recommended). Best of all it lasts for 2400 TBW so it'll last for years to come.

    I ordered this back on Black Friday for a Christmas gift to myself, and set it aside for the big day. Well, as it turned out, I recieved an empty box and had to head into the store to get it sorted out. I mean, how do you even begin to explain yourself for something like this? Customer service took care of me, no questions asked, and got a new one sent to me within 3 days. I cannot express the gratefulness I felt for being understood and believed on something like this. 5 star service. The product itself is easy to install (youtube it!) and once it was formatted it ran perfectly. Lightning fast installation and operation. Very pleased with my choice to purchase this NVMe!

    This drive is fast in benchmarking and some types of file transfers, but if you expect a boost in general things, you might be in for a disappointment. Buy this drive if you want one of the fastest drives (right now), but do it with the expectation of... Diminishing returns. Pros: 4TB lots of storage Was on sale. Cons: Didn't feel any quicker than my 3rd gen NVME, felt like it was a waste of money. Other thoughts: Am waiting for reasonably priced 8TB NVME drives, under $500.00

    I like its small minimal design and built in heatsink with a rgb light. However a big note, it does not fit in a regular SSD enclosure. The heatshield makes it too wide. You have to get a vertical heatsink that is open. One downside only but a major one if your trying to transfer data. For me its been exceptionally quick at gaming and all general uses. Got it on sale for a very good price. Overall very satisfied. I trust smasung and have bought numerous types and amounts of their ssds. Never failed me so far.

    Needed a fast and large storage to run well with a 4090, 14900k, and 128g ddr5 ram at 7800ms and this competes with speed, performance, write and download all in one. 100% would recommend even for lower end builds

    Good - A few caveats

    Overall a good buy. I've used many generations of Samsung NVME and they haven't really ever let me down. I have some issues with their warranty disclaimer that the cards can't be used in adapter cards or an external Thunderbolt chassis or in a Mac Pro (TIP: enable trim or warranty service is out of the question). If the card was used in the aforementioned configurations you'll have to test the card on a machine with an NVME slot on the motherboard before they will honor the warranty. Otherwise they've been reliable and as always blazing fast.

    Quite impressive just how large 4th of storage can be.. im using a smaller boot drive to keep windows separate and this 4tb version of Samsungs flagship 990 Pro to store games and all my Cad files on. Impressive data transfer between this and my Nas made me truly appreciate the speed of this nvme setup. Price per gig this made the most sense to me. Seams steep in cost until you factor youd need 4 1 tb to match its capacity and would easily be $100 more. This was the best match between performance, quality, and price

    Gaming beast

    You can't go wrong with Samsung's Pro drives, and this 4TB 990 PRO is an absolute beast. I needed a high-capacity, top-tier drive to handle massive game installs and file transfers, and this has exceeded expectations. The read and write speeds are blazing fast, cutting down game loading screens to practically nothing. ​Even with 4TB packed into a single-sided M.2 drive, it manages thermals exceptionally well and doesn't throttle under heavy workloads. Samsung Magician software also makes it incredibly easy to monitor drive health and keep firmware updated. It's expensive, but for the reliability, massive space, and sheer speed, it's worth every penny.

    I needed to expand the storage on my Zephyrus G14. I had read that there were minimal real-world performance gains upgrading SSD to SSD, so I was planning to purchase a more mid-level 4 TB drove. I bought the 990 Pro when it went on sale and was pleasantly surprised. There is a small but noticeable bump in booting and in loading times. The Samsung management software is easy to use and robust. The drive itself is solid and looks well built. Only tiny concern I have is it runs a little hotter than the 512GB WD Black that shipped with the laptop. (It’s not a problem sitting on my desk).

    This thing is incredibly fast, I used it as a memory upgrade for my gaming laptop and my system recognized it right away. Getting around 7800Mbps read/write speeds during full load. Its pricey but has proven to be worth it. I'd highly recommend getting Samsung Magician as it monitors the health of the SSD and provides driver updates, its not just wasted space.
