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)

I have had a SSD in my gaming rig for a good long while. When the time came to upgrade I decided to get a M.2 drive and this one popped up. Installation was a breeze and most motherboards support the socket these cards need to take advantage of the increased boot speeds youll get replacing an older mechanical hard drive. I use this primarily as a OS boot drive and have my game installs located on another. Performance is there and I can see the difference verses older technology. Very happy with my purchase.

Easy to install, works like a charm. Completed a file transfer in 3 minutes that a regular 3.5 hard drive took 38 minutes to complete.

very fast speed with very large capacity

I purchased this SSD for my desktop, I own a business and am a graphic designer. I needed a drive that could handle the software programs I use for my trade as well as the storage for the multiple revisions of work I do

Definitivamente no hay que buscar más si lo que se quiere es calidad, rendimiento y buen precio. Las velocidades de lectura y escritura van óptimo para mi Alienware x17 R2, cero problemas jugando o trabajando, más aún ejecutando máquinas virtuales, o programando.

came with no screws or mounting hardware, which is kinda sad for the price point think 10 cents for a screw and a stand off would not be much to ask for, but its fast and it works well

After purchasing a PlayStation 5 console at the end of 2021, it became apparently very quickly that the internal storage was going to be used up rather quickly. I waited a while for prices to drop, as at the time of purchasing the console, this 1TB NVMe drive was closer to $200, which was a little out of reach for me.

It was pretty easy to install, make sure you dont peel off the back sticker, its a heat spreading Label. Just Be Careful as it does not come with the screw to keep it in place, you should have one in your motherboards box though.It Also GREATLY increased load times for games, what took 10-20 secs to load now seems to happen instantly. Also you should try to get their Samsung Magician Software.

Just installing it in a new Win 10 Dell Optiplex 3070 SFF tonight, so will revisit as I get time on the drive. BUT, this SSD needs a M.2 Standoff and Screw to install in my machine. I dont know if that is universal but I expect so because otherwise the SSD sits right on top of the motherboard on the screw side (on an angle). There was a screw in my MB but it wasnt obvious until I went to install it that it has to have a standoff and associated screw. I dont mind that it needs the standoff but, geez, at least include one or call it out in the specs. Im lucky enough to have a lifetime of hardware bits so could cobble one up. If youre ordering this drive, search for M.2 Standoff and Screw and get a kit of them for $5-6.

I only get a write speed of 540 MB/s and a read speed of 1.5 GB/s and the price dropped rapidly after I bought but I was unable to cancel my order despite over a week of delays before shipping
