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)

Installation was easy, and worked great. No complaints. Worth the money.

Just as previous generation nvme drives, these perform as anticipated. No complaints, Samsung quality is always high. I also see improvements in gaming performance compared to the factory drive in my laptop.

As I have stated in another review, there are some really good drives out there for a decent price, and anyone of them you cant go wrong in buying them. In this case, Samsungs reliability of the product itself is why I bought this drive, actually two of them. These are for computer systems. Both systems have 16GB of memory, an Intel I5 at 3.9GB on a Socket 1200, 11th gen processor. Ok, so heres the but. Running a portable version of Crystal Disk Mark 8 V4, I consistently got roughly these figures. I measured the figures on both drives. So that means at least they both were consistent. I only looked at two figures, the Read/Write and the continuous Write. I ran Disk Mark about four or 5 times. So the figures are roughly what I saw.

I bought the 2TB 980 PRO for my new PC build (specs below). It is used for gaming and video/photo editing programs. It is ultra-fast when playing games and generating content. However, it does not reach its advertised speed of 7000 MB/s. My SSD was reaching between 6700-6800 MB/s.

I didnt realize HOW much faster gen-4 was. This drive flies. I had a 970 (*gen 3) and then upgraded when these dropped in price. Im glad I decided to pull the trigger on an upgrade!

Easy to install great sor Steam games

Solid product from the verified supplier. Works flawlessly with my PS5. Installation is a breeze.

This is a great product. It offers huge performance maps over staccato sata ssds. One caveat: make sure you download the Samsung magician software to monitor your drives and keep them up-to-date. There was a firmware issue that was corrupting earlier 980 pro 2tb m.2 drives and placing them into a read-only mode. The Samsung magician will help you make sure you have the latest firmware, which has resolved that issue.

First time using m.2 nvme and its the best

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.
