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)

Samsungs RAM und SSD are always promising as its spec announced.

I have a MSI Tomahawk B450 mb which I thought was 4th gen accepting. My drive runs at half the speed advertised possibly due to the fact the mb is NOT Gen 4 capable... I could be missing a setting that would enable the drive but Ive looked, researched, youtubed any and all possibilities yet cant get it to perform as advertised. Probably need a B550 chip set.

Its a fast NVME.

After that, my computer took on new colors.

I got this with a great deal from Amazon for $85. Plugged right into my PS5 and works great. Would recommend.

I used this 1TB capacity with the Samsung Magician migration tool from 500GB. Installation was quick and migrating the drive from a 960 to this 980 took less than 10 minutes and a read speed of 350MB/s.

Bought this for my PS5. Got a great price and the installation was easy and the drive is quick and without any hiccups! Its a Samsung so it was well made and a great company that stands behind its products.

This deserves a 5 star review, but they do not include the screw to hold down the SSD.

Unfortunately did not fit my nephews laptop but I wouldve loved to have something like this for myself. We ultimately ordered the one without a heatsink. Windows made it very difficult to install this due to Bitlocker and other just pathetic, inconvenient standards. Absolutely nothing worked, not the keys, not the restores, not the backups, not the alternative boots. EVEN AFTER WIPING THE HARD DRIVE and putting a fresh OS on it, it refused to boot from anything other than the original hard drive. Eventually I found some work-arounds after an exhausting couple of days attempting absolutely everything I learned during my A+ certification... Works like a charm.

Good reliable storage. Only SSD i am running and no hard disk. Just dont go downloading every game you own or youre gonna slowdown when it gets to like 80%. I just have like 3 games and some programming tools and I swap out games here and there. Im at like 400gb and have noticed no slowdowns at all. Fast installs as well.
