1TB NVMe SSD for gaming rigs
This Samsung 990 PRO delivers 1TB of V7 V-NAND storage on an M.2 2280 card. The PCIe Gen 4.0 x4 interface and NVMe 2.0 protocol feed data directly to the CPU. It targets enthusiasts who want consistent speed in a compact internal drive.
Heatsink keeps sustained writes stable
An integrated heatsink dissipates heat during long sessions so the controller maintains its pace. Random performance rises 65 percent over the 980 PRO, reaching 1400k read and 1550k write IOPS. Power efficiency improves 50 percent thanks to the 8nm controller architecture.
PCIe Gen 4.0 x4 caps sequential throughput
The interface tops out at 7450 MBps read and 6900 MBps write, which are the practical limits of the Gen 4.0 x4 lane. DirectStorage support lets compatible titles load assets straight from the drive. No faster standard exists on this bus generation.

Questions about this item
Does the integrated heatsink keep the 990 PRO cool enough for sustained all-day workloads?
The heatsink model maximises the cooling effect and prevents performance degradation due to overheating, while the 8 nm controller improves power efficiency up to 50 % over the 980 PRO.
What motherboard slot and protocol are required for this M.2 2280 drive?
It needs an M.2 2280 slot wired for PCI-Express Gen 4.0 x4 with NVMe 2.0 support.
Will the 990 PRO work in a system that only has PCIe Gen 3 M.2 slots?
The drive is built for PCI-Express Gen 4.0 x4; it will fall back to Gen 3 speeds if the slot only supports Gen 3.
