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 wanted to get the newest Samsung evo 990 pro, but my board does T support pci 5. So I got the 980 pro instead. I have a few 980 pros in my gigabyte z590 aorus ultra and can’t complain. Boot up speeds are awesome, gaming performance is also amazing. Can’t complain and I got this 2tb drive on sale I paid 289 with taxes for my 1tb almost a year and a half ago. This one was 195 with taxes. Very happy!

Cant provide any performance data other than to say it was easy to install and worked without any trouble. Was able to clone the 512GB SSD and the new SSD is performing flawlessly

Ive been using m.2 since the first generation! Make no mistake, ALL m.2 storage devices are FAST! this baby is simply a delightful indulgence. Do my apps/games run noticeably faster than first gen m.2? In most cases, no. But for file intensive operations, this device is a show off! And to be able to buy 2tb at less than $200 is a complete steal. Stop reading these reviews already and get one.

Unlike the WD that I had to return, this worked as soon as installed.

Bought this to increase the Ps5s internal storage capacity for $85USD.

I had a previous fantastic experience with the 980 Pro on my gaming rig. Maybe Im a fanboy, but when it comes to SSDs I have always favored Samsung Pro brand SSDs, and to date, none have failed me. Thankfully! Therefore no regrets. I ordered the 1TB version of this drive, but to my dismay, I received the 500GB version. Whoever put the amazon label on the box must have blundered, (or did a swap?). I didnt even open it, but arranged a pretty painless return, and this time, I got the correct capacity. I installed this in a Lenovo Yoga 730, which took quite a bit of steps to get into the bios, and make a series of changes, in correct sequence, to get to boot from USB stick. I could then load Paragon, and copy my main drive to this model, and extend its partition size to use this whole drive as my C. Nothing about this drive is dissapointing. My read/write speeds are about identical at 3400-3500MB/s in crystal disk. I think this laptop is only NVME 3.0, so Ive not seeing the full speed. Still its faster than the intel model it replaced. I always recommend the 980 Pros. There is a concern on earlier firmware revisions of some of these drives. May want to look into it, or run Magician and update firmware regardless. Yeah, buy this if you want good performance, and reliability. Price is decent too!

Does exactly what it’s suppose to do. No issues at all

Like it so far. Insanely fast windows boot.

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

The 2TB version of this SSD proved to be an excellent addition to my PS5 setup. Not only was it easy to set up, but it also provided much-needed storage space for my growing game library. Managing games has become a breeze, and I highly recommend this SSD to anyone looking to expand their consoles storage capacity.
