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)

Very good ssd

Purchased this product for the PS5. Heard about firmware issue. Saw recent youtube by Jayztwocents who showed that if drive is manufactured in Vietnam in Dec 22, then it already has the latest firmware which corrects the issue of corruption-this issue appears to apply to drives manufactured in 21 in Korea. The drive I received from Amazon was manufactured in Vietnam in Dec 2022. I did not bother to check firmware. Very easy to install with second party heatsink. PS5 reported read speed of 6667mps. I have no regrets purchasing this drive.

I bought this unit brand new through Amazon in late July and the unit is completely dead and undetectable on my system. At first I thought that the primary PCI 4.0 M.2 NVME slot on my motherboard was failing so I put it in the secondary PCI 3.0 slot but when that also did not work I put it into another brand new computer I had assembled for a friend and still the drive was not detected in the BIOS Boot Manager. To be clear, the drive worked perfectly fine before this and was lightly used as a gaming PC. I only had a few programs and games downloaded on the drive. I couldn’t imagine more than 10TBW was put on the drive. For posterity, the manufacture date for this Unit is May of 2022 and was made in Vietnam.

Little bit overly priced, but it’s got that Samsung name tied to it. Does the job as described.

My wife and I have been using two units of Samsung Galaxy Book Flex since 2020. Initially, they came with Intel SSD 660p, possibly due to cost-down measure. The problem, however, was that the SSDs became slower than the moment we purchased. Especially my wifes Galaxy was problemetic; it took 45 minutes to scan her SSD (approx. 32 GBs loaded in a 512-GB SSD) with her antivirus app this year, which was almost twice as long as the case last year. Thus, I decided to replace Intel SSD with Samsung SSD 980 Pro.

It is very easy to install and runs game very quickly

working good for my ps5 i recommend

The ssd is super easy to install following the instructions on ps5 YouTube channel. Make sure you get the right size screwdriver to open the ssd slot and change the position of the screw. Takes less than 5 minutes. The system must be updated to the latest firmware update BEFORE you format the drive, otherwise it will not have the same read speed. Format the drive and it’s ready to go. Very fast and all games are playable off it (ps4 and ps5)

Unlike the WD that I had to return, this worked as soon as installed.

very fast!
