SAMSUNG 980 PRO SSD 2TB PCIe NVMe Gen 4 Gaming M.2 Internal Solid State Drive Memory Card + 2mo Adobe CC Photography, Maximum Speed, Thermal Control (MZ-V8P2T0B)

Ive always had good results with Samsung SSDs, so when it came time to build a new AM5 system, they were the obvious choice. I did my homework first though. My system is fairly high end with a 7900X processor, a ROG Crosshair Hero motherboard, 64GB of G.Skill ram. Wanted to go with the 990 Pro series NVMe, but building a custom water cooled loop and all the other hardware had already cost a lot, so decided to go with the 980 pro instead, as the new Gen5 stuff is said to be coming out real soon now.

Delivery today. Driver was nice and very friendly. Blazing fast speeds. No more stuttering in games and no more slow downloads capped by a HDD. Love it.

This was super easy to install into the PS5. Im so glad I purchased it to expand my storage options. The PS5 games take up a massive amount of space, so youll need this if you just got a PS5.

I watched a few YT videos on installing this and it was a breeze. I kept this on my wish list until the 2TB version dropped to $149.95 and with a gift card I snagged it at a killer price.

Clone of my old drive took a over an hors, but only because it was over a slow USB port. My 8th Gen Core-I7 machine used to take 45-60 seconds to boot. I now have a login screen in under 10 seconds from a cold boot.

What more can be said. It is super fast and super easy to install in the Playstation 5. Now I have plenty of room for all the games I play.

This was very easy to install and improved run speed instantly.

Great product. Fast shipping. It was pretty easy to install. Working fine. Recommended.

it works with my h570 asrock motherboard 4 gaming seem to be just a little bit faster than my external wd black 5 tb

In total, I have three of these now. Two are in Z690 motherboards (one with an i7-13600K and another with an i5-12600K) and the other is in a Z390 (i5-9600K). For the i7 machine, the SSD is in the M.2 slot connected to the CPU directly and for the i5, its connected via the chipset. After running Crystal Disk Mark a couple of times there is no performance difference (indiscernible or otherwise) between the drive connected to the CPU directly (with the i7) and the drive connected to the chipset (with the i5). Both get close to 7GB/sec read times. Write times are about 4.5GB/sec, which is way faster than anything I need. Even though Im not totally blown away by their performance, theyre still very good SSDs.
