Put demanding games and creative projects on fast PCIe 4.0 storage
Samsung 990 PRO gives compatible PCs a fast internal workspace for game libraries, applications and creative files. Its PCIe 4.0 NVMe interface delivers sequential reads up to 7,450MB/s and writes up to 6,900MB/s under Samsung test conditions.
This listing is the bare M.2 module, suited to systems with an appropriate cooling arrangement already in place.
Highlights
Fast internal storage
- PCIe 4.0 x4 with NVMe 2.0
- Up to 7,450MB/s read and 6,900MB/s write
A module for your system cooling
- M.2 2280 bare-drive format
- Samsung V-NAND TLC with capacity-specific LPDDR4 cache
Management and endurance
- Samsung Magician drive health and firmware tools
- Five-year limited warranty subject to rated TBW
Key Features
Keep active projects close at hand
A fast internal SSD is a useful home for frequently accessed applications, games and project files. The 990 PRO combines Samsung V-NAND TLC flash with a PCIe 4.0 x4 connection for high sequential throughput, helping compatible systems handle large file transfers and storage-intensive work.
A bare module that fits your cooling plan
The M.2 2280 module is supplied without the factory heatsink. It suits compatible systems that provide a suitable motherboard heatsink or another approved cooling solution. Confirm the slot, mounting arrangement and cooling clearance rather than assuming every M.2 connection accepts NVMe storage.
Cache and endurance scaled by capacity
The drive has dedicated LPDDR4 cache: 1GB on 1TB, 2GB on 2TB and 4GB on 4TB. Rated endurance scales from 600TBW to 2,400TBW across those capacities. Choose around both working space and expected writing demands.
Useful visibility into drive condition
On supported systems, Samsung Magician provides drive management and health monitoring, with firmware tools available through Samsung software. TRIM and S.M.A.R.T. support complement those functions. Keeping software current helps you manage the drive through its working life.
Security features with host requirements
AES 256-bit encryption, TCG Opal and IEEE 1667 support are available for compatible software and system configurations. Encryption requires suitable configuration; it is not a substitute for backup. Warranty coverage ends after five years or at the rated TBW limit, whichever occurs first.
Summary
Samsung 990 PRO is a strong fit for a compatible PCIe 4.0 PC that already has the right M.2 cooling solution. Choose the capacity for your games or creative workspace, with dedicated cache and clear endurance ratings for each model.
Samsung 990 PRO NVMe M.2 SSD
