Samsung PM961 256GB NVMe SSD

This Samsung PM961 solid state drive provides 256GB of internal storage using the M.2 2280 form factor and a PCI-Express 3.0 x4 NVMe interface. It is an OEM component intended for compatible laptops or desktops needing a direct replacement or capacity upgrade.

Buyers replacing a failed PM961 module

This drive suits owners of systems that originally shipped with a PM961 or a compatible part number such as 5SD0L73444. Builders whose motherboard lacks an M.2 slot supporting PCI-Express 3.0 x4 NVMe should look elsewhere.

PCI-Express 3.0 x4 NVMe interface requirement

The single specification that decides fit is the PCI-Express 3.0 x4 NVMe interface combined with the M.2 2280 physical keying. Verify the host system supports this exact interface before purchase.

Questions about this item

Does the M.2 2280 form factor of this PM961 drive fit a standard laptop M.2 slot?

Yes, the 2280 length matches the common M.2 slot used in most laptops and desktops.

What is the correct way to install this PCI-Express 3.0 x4 NVMe SSD so it is detected?

Insert the drive at an angle into the M.2 socket, press it flat, and secure it with the motherboard screw; skipping the screw often causes poor contact.

Will the Samsung PM961 controller or NAND need replacement after heavy write workloads?

The drive has no user-serviceable parts; if the controller or NAND wears out the whole unit is replaced.
