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 the 2nd Samsung 980 PRO that I have purchased. The first time around I got one with no heatsink since there is already one heat sink included on the motherboard. Properly installing the heat sink was kind of a pain so for the 2nd one (on a different PC) I decided to get the included heat sink.. Installation took about 3 minutes rather than 10 min without and I still have the included heat sink on motherboard if i find a killer deal on one later.. I am unable to get the full 7000mbs but I am getting close at 6500.

We are a family of IT professionals, and each of us has two laptops.

Quick warning, you may need to buy M.2 SSD screws if you plan to put it in your PC. At least I needed it in my B550. Also, you should download Samsung Magician. If you dont update the firmware for your SSD, the lifespan could be cut in half.

I couldnt have asked for a better experience in adding size to my PS5. It was easy as pie to make the addition. Easy instructions online. And thank you for the good pricing.

Whats not to like about a 980 Pro with a Samsung-made heatsink? Turns out its not very laptop friendly. Make sure you have a ton of space if you wanna put this beast in your laptop. I hear PS5 users love them though

Im currently running this in my setup as the price dropped by quite a bit. There were some worries as older models require a firmware update due to the drive locking up, but it looks like the one I have did not have that issue. Overall, this is a great price to performance for a 2TB storage by far, especially when it comes to brand names with a decent warranty.

FYI if Running Intel 10th Gen Processors this will not run at its full speed potential. You need an 11th gen Intel chip or newer to take full advantage of PCI-4.0 NvME slot (which this chip is really designed for) Also recommend downloading the Samsung Magician app to install and optimize this drive.

i bougtht it about $253.57 but it dropped few days later

Bought two. Put one in my sons PC and its working great. The other in my ps5. Super easy install in both and no problems out of either. When I need another well get these again

works great
