The Samsung 990 PRO is a 2TB M.2 SSD with PCIe 4.0/NVMe interface. It has a read speed of 7450 MB/s and a write speed of 6900 MB/s. It is designed for gamers and content creators who need fast and reliable storage. The SSD comes with a 5-year warranty and Samsung's Magician software for easy management and optimization.

The Ultimate SSD

Take full advantage of PCIe® 4.0. Enjoy long-lasting, competitor-defeating speed. The internal intelligent speed management ensures energy efficiency while maintaining a breathtaking pace and performance so you can always stay on top.

^{* The maximum theoretical sequential speed of PCIe 4.0 is 8000 MB/s – as of Q3 2022, 990 PRO achieves 7,450 MB/s.}

PCIe 4.0 Speed at Its Maximum

Incredible speed! Random read/write speeds are 40% and 55% faster than the 980 PRO, reaching up to 1400K/1550K IOPS, while sequential read/write speeds up to 7450/6900 MB/s are almost at the PCIe® 4.0 maximum. Games, videos, 3D rendering, data analysis, and more become effortless.

^{* Sequential and random write speeds were measured with Intelligent Turbo Write technology enabled. This technology works only within a certain data transfer volume. Actual performance may vary depending on SSD firmware, system hardware, settings, and other factors. For more information, contact your local service center. * Test system configuration: AMD Ryzen 7 5800X (8-Core Processor CPU@3.80GHz), DDR4 3600MHz 16GBx2 (PC4-25600 Overclock), OS – Windows 10 Pro 64-bit, Chipset – ASRock-X570 Taichi. * To maximize 990 PRO performance, please check Intel or AMD websites to confirm that your system supports PCIe 4.0. * 4TB model available starting 2023.}

Unprecedented Energy Efficiency

More performance, less power. Typically, better performance means higher energy consumption, but the 990 PRO uses less energy and delivers 50% better performance per watt compared to the 980 PRO. Thanks to its low-power design, you can achieve PCIe 4.0® maximum performance with optimal energy efficiency.

^{* 980 PRO sequential read/write: 1129/877 MB/W. 990 PRO sequential read/write: 1380/1319 MB/W. Based on internal testing with the 1TB model.}

Smart Thermal Solution

Speed matters. A nickel-coated controller and an advanced thermal control algorithm efficiently dissipate heat to achieve maximum performance. The heat spreader dissipates heat from the NAND chip, while dynamic thermal control maintains an optimal temperature.

Become a Champion

Experience the best in gaming. With more than a 55% improvement in random performance, games load faster, making PS5 and DirectStorage PC games incredibly realistic.

^{* Microsoft’s DirectStorage technology loads games faster by leveraging the GB/s speeds of modern NVMe SSDs. * Results compared to the Samsung 980 PRO.}

Samsung Magician Software

Get the most out of your 990 PRO. Samsung Magician’s user-friendly optimization tools help you make the most of your SSD. Protect your data, get updates, monitor drive health, and customize LED colors. It’s your personal SSD toolbox.

^{The Magician software is a toolbox that helps you get the most from your 990 PRO. It includes comprehensive drive health checks, performance benchmarking and optimization, as well as encrypted drive and firmware updates.}

World’s No.1 in Flash Memory
