Upgraded Storage for PC and Laptop: SAMSUNG 990 EVO 1TB SSD, PCIe Gen 4x4, Gen 5x2 M.2 2280 NVMe SSD, up to 5,000MB/s

Boasting the latest available PCIe 5.0 interface, the 990 EVO offers improved performance compared to the 970 EVO Plus². It's everything you want in a storage device - fast speeds, power efficiency, and effective temperature control.

The 990 EVO delivers sequential and random write performance measured with Intelligent Turbo Write technology being activated. This technology operates only within a specific data transfer size, and performance may vary depending on the SSD's firmware, system hardware and configuration, and other factors. For detailed information, please contact your local service center.

The test system configuration used to evaluate the 990 EVO includes an AMD Ryzen9 7950x 16-Core Processor [email protected], DDR5 4800MHz 16GBx2 (PC5-38400), Windows 11 Pro 64bit OS, and an ASRock X670E Taichi chipset. To maximize the 990 EVO's performance, users should check whether their system supports PCIe® 4.0 or PCIe® 5.0 at the Intel or AMD website.

Based on test results for the 1TB capacity model, the 990 EVO offers significant improvements in sequential read/write speeds compared to the 970 EVO Plus². The 990 EVO can achieve up to 1,020/933 MB/Watt in sequential read/write, while the 970 EVO Plus² managed 636/550 MB/Watt.²

The 990 EVO's read and write speeds of up to 5,000/4,200 MB/s* allow for lightning-fast game loading and file saving. This continuous speed helps boost productivity, as users can rely on the drive's performance to keep them going.

In terms of power efficiency, the 990 EVO provides up to 70% improved performance per watt over the 970 EVO Plus*. This means users can experience better performance while consuming less power overall, making every move more effective.

To avoid sudden performance drops mid-project, the 990 EVO's smart thermal control features Samsung's fine-tuned controller and heat spreading label. This effective thermal control ensures the drive can maintain its performance even under heavy workloads, keeping your hard-earned progress safe.

The 990 EVO is optimized to support the latest storage technology, being compatible with both PCIe 4.0 x4 and PCIe 5.0 x2. This expanded bandwidth and higher data processing capabilities translate to smoother storage performance with less power consumption.

Lastly, the 990 EVO's Magician Software keeps the drive up-to-date with the latest firmware updates, providing extra encryption and continual monitoring of the drive's health. This ensures the SSD maintains its peak performance over time, working like a charm to keep users' storage running at its best.
