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)

This is my second 980. I have one from about launch time in my wife’s Ryzen-based laptop and this one, installed around 12/14/2022 in a Core i5 13600 system. They generally run around 6.9 gigs a second read and 5.4 gigs per second write, which is plenty fast for whatever you’d throw at it.

No complaints here. Have purchased multiple 2TB 980 Pros for my PC and PS5. Zero issues whatsoever with either setup!

I was wondering if this installation would be complicated or if the reviews online were used to this type of work. I found it extremely easy to follow the instructions on YouTube. For my first time adding this memory to my PS5 it took me about a minute to do it. And the time that the video lasted. This is an easy upgrade to do.

I only bought ONE!

Excellent

Going from a spinning platter hard drive to even a SATA SSD back in 2017 was a big step up. It was time to replace that old SSD with something new (SSDs are great but when they do fail I understand that they fail spectacularly and all of a sudden). For peace of mind I wanted a new drive and thought I would go with an NVMe m.2-connected SSD for the claimed speed bonus.

I put this drive into an external Thunderbolt case and the speed is over 5 times faster than my other USB 3.1 external drive.

Amazing product I highly recommend it.

I needed a new disk to use as a removable hard disk together with an enclosure and the truth is that I had never had such a fast and powerful NvME in my hands.

Runs great, fast storage. Computer boots before my monitor turns on. 0 problems!
