Samsung 990 PRO with Heatsink PCIe 4.0 M.2 (2TB)

The Ultimate SSD

Reach max performance of PCIe® 4.0. Experience longer-lasting, opponent-blasting speed. The in-house controller's smart heat control delivers supreme power efficiency while maintaining ferocious speed and performance, to always keep you at the top of your game.

* PCIe 4.0’s best theoretical sequential read is 8000 MB/s - 990 PRO reaches 7,450 MB/s as of Q3, 2022.

PCIe 4.0 speed maximized

Huge speed boost. 990 PRO with Heatsink offers sequential read/write speeds up to 7,450/6,900 MB/s reaching near the max performance of PCIe® 4.0. 40% and 55% faster random read/write speeds than 980 PRO 2TB - up to 1,400K/1,550K IOPS, while 4TB even higher random read speed of up to 1,600K IOPS.

* Sequential and random write performance was measured with Intelligent Turbo Write technology being activated. Intelligent Turbo Write operates only within a specific data transfer size. Performance may vary depending on SSD’s firmware, system hardware & configuration and other factors. For detailed information, please contact your local service center.
* Test system configuration: AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 8-Core Processor CPU@3.80GHz, DDR4 3600MHz 16GBx2 (PC4-25600 Overclock), OS - Windows 10 Pro 64bit, Chipset - ASRock-X570 Taichi
* To maximize the performance of the 990 PRO, please check whether your system supports PCIe 4.0 at the Intel or AMD website.

Breakthrough power efficiency

More power-efficient performance. Higher performance usually consumes more power. But, 990 PRO uses less power with up to 50% improved performance per Watt over 980 PRO. This low-power design makes max PCIe®4.0 performance possible with optimal power efficiency.

* 980 PRO Sequential Read/Write - 1,129/877 MB/Watt, 990 PRO Sequential Read/Write - 1380/1319 MB/Watt based on internal test result of the 1TB capacity model.

Smart thermal solution

Sink that heat. The slim heatsink dissipates heat to prevent performance drops from overheating. Get stable heat control, and minimal fan noise for heavy-graphic gaming. The thin body is compatible with PlayStation® 5, desktops, and laptops meeting the PCI-SIG® D8 standard.
