    Ottimo prodotto, veloce, top di gamma.
    Pu essere usato come veloce memoria di massa di un PC oppure come piccola memoria esterna allo stato solido, robusta e insensibile a cadute o campi magnetici.

    Prodotto da una azienda che nel coro degli anni ha saputo conquistare la fiducia dei suoi clienti grazie a prodotti altamente performanti e duratori ad un costo accessibile, questo uno degli ultimi nati in casa Samsung e promette prestazioni veramente elevate.

    IMPORTANTE Ultimamente Samsung sta avendo diversi problemi produttivi su questi prodotti, segno che sta iniziando a badare pi al risparmio che sull’affidabilit.
    Una volta installato installare SAMSUNG MAGICIAN per effettuare un aggironamento del firmware, in quanto presenta problemi di gestione dell’usura, con rischio di invecchiamento precode dell’unit.
    Una volta aggiornato il firmware il problema dovrebbe essere scomparso.

    A parte questo importante inconveniente l’unit velocissima e semplicemente eccezzionale.
    E’ raccomandato l’uso in abbinamento ad un dissipatore di calore, ormai di serie su tutte le schede matri per PC.

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our Users7gBps read write for benchmarks, okay.
    Windows copy paste at 4gBps max, probably will improve as windows updates
    Small file read write speed is around 100-300mBps which on hdds is at 20mBps

    Très bon SSD

    Golden Review Award: 21 From Our UsersUpdate the firmware to the latest version before using the SSD. There were cases of these drives failing and Samsung fixed it. I did use Samsung Magician and updated the firmware to the latest as of now. Check the image attached with the review.

    This thing surpasses most of the SSD drives in this speed bracket, in my opinion totally worth it for the price I paid.

    Using it for my PS5, with a heatsink. During tests, it was giving 6557MB/s read speed in my PS5. Game loading times are so tiny I do not even notice it anymore. If you plan to use this drive, make sure you are getting a good heatsink for it because it runs HOT.

    As expected, with Samsung, you really do get amazing performance, I reach the speeds near enough, no issues with it, never had any with Samsung drives. Hoping for a 4TB version at an affordable price.

    It looks as though the problem was that I had the previous version of Magician. With the latest, the SSD shows up as Genuine. Everthing else looks good. The 121 price was remarkable – I couldn’t pass this up. Very happy now I believe this is genuine.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Update to: Was the Prime Day £121 price too good to be true?

    This bad boy Is fast. It’s rare to get advertised speeds of anything, but I believe 7454MB/s Read and 6935MB/s Write, Is a gnat’s whisker over. Cheap as chips at the moment (pun intended).

    5.0 out of 5 stars Color me impressed.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersSamsung approved promotion on 1st June was to be paid within 30 days; Finally got paid cashback on 11th July.
    Pity as wanted to buy another 990 pro but did not think Samsung was paying up so bought a WD Black 850X on Amazon Sale.

    I replaced my A-DATA 1TB SX8200 with Samsung 990 PRO 2TB. It’s not cheap, but I can see difference in speed. It’s really worth it. Easy to install. I highly recommend.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersReally good m2 and does the speeds it says. Would highly recommend. I’d just not buy from tech dealz as they are based in usa when you want help with something they are not very helpful.

    Swapped out samsung 970 pro for the 990 pro… researched the thermal pad etc… placed it into motherboard. Noticed the temp has increased by 5c. Runs alot better than previous NVMe. Recommend this drive… speed difference is noticeable!!!

    Golden Review Award: 9 From Our UsersI installed my 990 2TB into my new Razer Blade 16 (4080 for those wondering) and run it as my main drive along with a 980 2TB for games.

    My use case is primarily video and photo editing I also use it for gaming too.

    This is easily one of, if not the fastest gen 4 drives out there, it performs as it says on the tin.. howevber I would strongly recomend updating the drives firmware prior to using it for any heavy lifting or installing a large ammount onto it – the 990 pro has a firmware version from earlier in 2023 that was poor and causes some of them to brick for seemingly no reason.. so again – UPDATE THE FIRMWARE, asap and youll be dandy!

    Enjoy!

    Golden Review Award: 20 From Our UsersBought a pair of these for a W790 workstation while they briefly hit 156 for a 2TB 990 Pro, its been smooth sailing all the way, performance is as advertised with no issues…

    It is worth noting however that they both came with the known problematic firmware “0B2QJXD7” which causes massively accelerated degradation as seen in other reviews here, I had Immediately updated them both to the fixed “1B2QJXD7” firmware using Samsung Magician so do check your drives when they arrive, some may even have the update pre-installed.

    Mine have been running for some time now with no problems.

    This wasn’t recognised in my ASRock X99 Extreme4 motherboard at all – it wouldn’t even show up in the BIOS and I tried everything. However it did work fine in a friend’s newer computer as well as my PS5. Interestingly my motherboard did happily work with a Samsung SM951 and a Samsung 980 so bear in mind that even if you’re upgrading from an existing Samsung NVMe drive, you might still have issues with this one being recognised.

    Where it did work, it was really fast so would definitely recommend it. Just remember to upgrade the firmware using Samsung Magician if you don’t want it to die an early death.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Great, if it works

    Golden Review Award: 3 From Our UsersI run this SSD in a Thunderbolt 4 case by ACASIS that I also bought on Amazon. The combination is perfect for my needs. I do video editing in FCPX on my 16″ MacBook Pro M1 Max and this SSD is perfect for my needs. I did have to add more thermal transfer tape than came with the case to get full contact as this SSD runs hot without adequate thermal transfer.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Fast, very fast.

    Golden Review Award: 2 From Our UsersDecided to buy this after tons of positive reviews on different websites.

    Swapping out my Dell Latitude 5420 stock SSD with this one was easy and the speed of this SSD is MUCH better than the original 256GB SSD my Dell had.
