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)

Best chips in the business are manufactured in Korea, that pretty much covers it. Even shipped with the right firmware so I didnt have to update it.

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!

I hate these products are so expensive. It was at the memory is not bigger in these gaming consoles with game download these days. However, it is almost a necessary purchase anymore. This product works as advertised, and I have had no issues with installing, overheating, or filling up the memory thus far.

Desempaña la misma velocidad que dice el fabricante, carga super rapido todos mis juegos y aplicaciones. tiene mejoras en comparacion al evo 970 pro, lo unico que no me gusto es que es de 500Gb es 12Gb menos que el 970 pro de la version anterior

Perfect for PS5 and it’s space “issue” lol.

Do yourself a favor and download the Samsung Magician software first thing and ensure the firmware is up to date before using it. I lost quite a few large files due to unreadable sectors and CRC errors. I ran a full diagnostic scan in Magician and it identified many bad LBAs, took upwards of 10-11 hours to finish when it should only take 3-4. So I updated the firmware and then low level erased every mapped address space block using gparted live, then reinstalled Windows and files from backup. Kind of disappointing given the price paid when I bought it, but hopefully the latest firmware will be more reliable. After all that, at least Magician doesnt show any bad LBAs anymore for the time being.

Just built a new PC and my old NVME is a 950 Pro which I still use, 2500MBs/1400MBs or something like that and it actually exceeds those speeds. This drive was a hair under, within the margin of error. I have my POST time set to 2 seconds. With my other drive I would be in windows in about 6-7 seconds from turning on the power, but now Im in windows before my monitor even powers up, Id say 4 seconds. Crazy...

Easy installation for PS5. The product was delivered quickly and as described. I would recommend it.

If youre weighing between an internal SSD or external SSD for your PS5, spend the extra $ and get this. Internal is the way to go, not only do you now have more storage for games... Games can be played right off the SSD. Unlike the external SSD, where games would need to be transferred.

So I wanted to leave a positive review this came in only a few days and I was searching for a memory device to upgrade in my PlayStation and I kept going to all the game stores and the prices were outrageous. I looked on Amazon. I found this card I found the 1 TB version and the 500 GB version but also the 2 TB version I didnt see any reviews on the 2 TB version but I thought I would give it a shot, I dont know much about installing things but I just looked on YouTube and I installed it in under 10 minutes. Id say with barely any experience in this stuff I installed it turned on my PlayStation and I now have 2 TB of storage to use. This is definitely pretty awesome. I highly suggest it for the price and how easy it is to install
