[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Samsung never disappoints.. Especially when it comes to storage solutions. The 990 Evo NVME SSD is yet another success story for Samsung. This 2TB SSD has me loading into my homescreen in record times. Unlike the days of using HDD & Sata SSD's, this Evo NVME is like the dawning of a new era. For myself as a enthusiast PC gamer, it's more than ideal, it's necessary. My system now sports 3 Samsung SSD's. A 4tb 990 Pro, a 2tb 990 Pro & now the 2tb Evo. It's safe to say, I have the swifest, slickest & quickest gaming rig this side of the Mississippi. Thank you, Samsung. For making every second & every load time count.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm absolutely thrilled with my recent purchase of a Samsung SSD. The performance boost it's given my system is nothing short of remarkable. Boot times are lightning-fast, and applications load almost instantaneously. The reliability and durability of Samsung's SSDs are well-known, and I've experienced firsthand just how dependable they are. I've had no issues whatsoever, and I feel confident that my data is safe and secure. If you're looking to upgrade your storage, I highly recommend considering a Samsung SSD. It's a worthwhile investment that will significantly enhance your overall computing experience.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My fiancé and I tried out this SSD in a custom PC build recently. The SSD was intuitive to install, although we have some prior experience in building PCs so that helped in knowing what to do. Once the device was installed and the entire computer was running there were no issues observed and the device appeared to meet its claims. My fiancé, who is the primary user of the PC gave it a thumbs up. This brand is known to be reliable and reputable and this product lived up to our expectations. If the specifications of this product meet your needs then you should consider this SSD in your next project.

It stays cool enough without a heat sink. Heat sink may be useful for a more compact device though. After 5 years, its still works fine and hasn't had any errors. The speed that it has, upload and download, are pretty accurate. As long as its less than about 80% to 90% full, your downloads are extremely fast with no delays or buffer time. It makes getting new content or games fast and easy in minimal time and it's basically plug and play for instalation. The cost seems a bit high, but the support and quality that come with it is better than the majority of other products, if not all of them.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This drive has been running flawlessly for me with incredible speeds and reliability. Early on, there was a well-documented firmware issue that required an immediate update to prevent rapid health degradation, which was definitely a scare at the time. ​Thankfully, the issue was fully resolved via a firmware patch, and newer production models likely come with the fix pre-installed right out of the box. Once updated, it performs exceptionally well. Just be sure to check Samsung Magician when setting it up to verify your firmware is up to date!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] ​ The Samsung 990 EVO is power-efficient. It is incredibly versatile and runs very cool, making it perfect if you are putting it into a tight space without a bulky heatsink. It also uniquely supports both PCIe 4.0 and PCIe 5.0 connections which i think is cool....literally lol. But there is a downside to this. ​The flaws here are a bit more glaring. It uses a DRAM-less design, so it borrows your system memory to map files, which makes it slower at finding data than the PRO. In addition, its "PCIe 5.0" capability is mostly a gimmick. It only uses two lanes, so it ultimately performs just like an average PCIe 4.0 drive anyway. All in all it is reliable if your gaming or just looking to run high resolution programs.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my first m.2 experience but I do not doubt my m.2 samsung is best in class. I have enough knowledge to understand the processing capabilities of these. I get no issues when I push my system with downloads, data transfers, and game time loads. I rarely see much heat increases too. And I am impatient when it comes to processes in pcs. I do extreme multi-tasking and push my pc to its limits. Even when I upgraded my cpu I just added more multi-tasking. I'd recommend this card without hesitation even for gamers. True gen 5 may not be utilized but gen 5 is still rarely used on boards anyways and you wouldn't be unhappy with the speeds of this card. Specially if you get this on sale. Can't beat price per performance per watt.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been using the Samsung 990 EVO NVMe SSD 1TB for a few weeks now, and the performance has exceeded my expectations. Boot times are lightning-fast, and apps load almost instantly. I noticed a significant difference in speed compared to my old SATA SSD. Installation was super easy, and Samsung’s Magician software made the setup smooth. The drive runs cool even under heavy workloads, and the read/write speeds are exactly as advertised—if not better. If you're looking for a powerful upgrade to your system, this SSD is a no-brainer. Samsung continues to deliver top-tier quality, and the 990 EVO is no exception! Pros: Incredible speed Easy installation Reliable performance Great value for the price Cons: None so far!Highly recommended!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I originally purchased some Samsung 970 EVO nvme 1tb drives years ago. They've always worked flawlessly without issues so I've ended up buying 3 more. I gave some as gifts to friends but I've never had any issues with Samsung m.2 ssd. They've worked with multiple motherboards over the years as I've updated computers. I'm now looking to get higher memory over, but the 1tb capacity is great and they still perform like new. Once they're formatted it's very easy to use like any other drive, just directly in Windows you can see everything about the drive.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was running out of space on my hard drive and I had a report due. I've been through all the nonsense of deleting system files anything else I could find to clear space. I did a little research and quickly found that this was a good economic replacement. with the SSD technology things run much better system loads faster, read writes are much faster as well. I've always had great luck with Samsung products so it was no brainer to purchase this device been completely, 100% satisfied with its performance to value. and install was a breeze.

Overall, this 2TB drive is an excellent choice for anyone who wants top-tier speed, easy setup, and long-term reliability in a single package.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Nighy and day difference over my old factory hard drive. I was actually contemplating just getting rid of my HP laptop but realized it had an empty nvme slot. I replaced my primary drive and it turned my pc into a beast. Load times speed of accessing data and running applications increased 25 fold. I couldn't be more impressed. Boot times and shut down times are amazing. It's been over a year no issues and couldn't be happier. Samsung stands behind their products as their performance and reliability are second to none.

Its also been pretty efficient overall and I havent really had any latency problems when it comes to uploading and downloading. The thermals have also been very solid for the ssd though id say it does get a little warm when stressing it. And throughput has been the best part because my previous setup was hard drives so this NVMe ssd has overall been a very good investment. :)

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great drive. It’s fast, reliable, and stays nice and cool even with a heavy load. ​Performance: Hits a snappy 5,000 MB/s. System boot times are nearly instant and games load fast. ​Thermals: It runs incredibly cool and sips power. You don't need a bulky heatsink to keep it from throttling. ​Reliability: It handles everyday tasks and heavy gaming flawlessly without lagging. ​Verdict: 4.5/5. Simple, efficient, and reliable. Highly recommend if you want solid performance without dealing with high heat.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Samsung 990 EVO SSD offers amazing speedy performance and reliable storage, making it an excellent choice for people looking for top-tier speed and durability. With read and write speeds that outpace many others, tasks such as booting up your system, loading applications, and transferring large files have become faster than ever! On top of that, the endurance is great and the storage even better! Overall, I’d say this is worth the investment for anyone looking to upgrade their storage systems!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It took a while to learn how the 990 EVO 5.0 NVMe SSD 1TB workes, but I was able to add it to my laptop and it has been doing great so far with no significant issues. The biggest problem I ran into while using this is the limited installation information. At first I thought I needed an adaptor for this to work. There were no video tutorials available or explicit directions to walk me through the installation process. I eventually figured it out, but it took far longer than in should have.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased this product a few weeks ago, and I have had an excelent experience! The software provided by samsung to transfer my old data to the new SSD was not only easy to navigate, but worked great as well. Prior to this purchase, my computer was constantly crashing and slowing down a lot, but now my computer is running speeds faster than ever, and I have some extra storage for me to use. I would definitely recommend this product if you are looking for a fast, reliable, affordable SSD.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had 980 EVO SSD for my PlayStation 5 and I loved it. When I got my new MacBook Pro I decided to increase the storage and undoubtedly ordered the new Samsung 990 Evo 5.0 NVMe SSD. Its data transfer rate is unbelievably fast and I can edit my photos and videos directly on the latest Samsung SSD with no problem. I love it the same as all my other Samsung products (Cell phone, Watch, Earbuds, Laptop, Tablet, Monitor, TV,...). Thank you, Samsung for bringing awesomeness to my life.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Had a laptop that was dying g for space and improved speeds. Samsung chips are the best around in price to perfo4mance ratio. This was the first time in about 20 years I had upgraded a computers hard drive.,back thena 40gb drive that was the size of a visitor tape was top of the line. This drive though was a breeze to install and configure for my system. Works great, been monitoring temps and they have been good all works great, fast reliable and lots of room for my next game!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] During the 8 years that I have been booting off a 970 Evo, I have had three other drives fail me. A Seagate, WD, and PNY. The PNY I was expecting to fail, but not the other two given their load as mere game libraries. Still, the 970 Evo shows no signs of age in that time, despite being my C drive. It was an easy decision then, to buy another Samsung drive for my other M.2 slot. The 990 Evo is every bit as good-looking as it's predecessor(which is a weirdly neglected design consideration by some manufacturers, we like to display our internals these days) and also comes with no heatsink. While my 970 did occasionally throttle during very large transfers, the 990 never seems to, maintaining its significantly faster speed no matter what I throw at it. As long as Samsung keeps making the best stuff, I'll keep buying Samsung.

Samsung is a great brand for memory, so this SSD is definitely for you if you’re a light to medium heavy gamer, graphic designer, video editor, etc! Totally worth it! Definitely get this!

The 990 has been a staple in both console use and desktop, and in both applications, it's been fast, reliable, and efficient at its job- with no noticeable slowing when reading or writing. In both my desktop and console use, with no changes in Cooling, the 990 continues to operate smoothly, with no issues in Heat generation.

Comes with 1 Tb storage for having more than enough space. Works well for intense gaming my software and for high memory speed internet tasks like video editing and graphic design. The only problem with it is that it doesn’t maintain its temperature to remain cool when it overheats a lot.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After many years I finally decided to upgrade my good old ssd with an NVME. 990 EVO is treating me really well even with huge and multiple file transfers, which is what I use it for. It doesn't go over with temps and stays pretty much efficient all the time even after prolonged usage. I won't say anything about the price but, all things considered, it's an excellent choice for durability, reliability and efficiency.

What would normally talk over an hour according to Smart Switch takes 15 minuets or less with the speed offered by the NVMe drive and a USB-4 cable

This particular drive stands out as the finest Samsung product I have ever acquired. I have experienced no issues whatsoever regarding latency or any other performance concerns. Furthermore, utilizing Samsung's data migration software proved to be incredibly straightforward in transferring all my data from my previous drives. As someone who also owns the 990 Evo and the 980 Pro 2 terabyte models, both of which are reliable, the 990 truly offers exceptional performance. While it runs approximately 2 degrees cooler than the 980 Pro, which is still a positive aspect, its consistency is truly remarkable. I can confidently state that this drive exhibits no consistency problems; every time I use it, I encounter no issues with game downloads, crashes, or any performance-related setbacks. Nothing seems to impede its speed. Overall, this is unequivocally the best drive I have ever utilized.

The speed alone makes it worth every penny—boot times are basically instant, games load in a blink, and large file transfers feel effortless. It's one of those upgrades you notice immediately. Installation was super simple. Pop it into the M.2 slot, tighten one screw, and it was ready to go. Samsung’s software recognized it instantly and made setup smooth. Temperatures have been surprisingly low, even under heavy loads. Whether I’m gaming, editing, or running multiple programs, it stays cool and stable, which is huge for performance and longevity. On top of that, it just looks good. The clean design and compact layout make it fit perfectly into a modern build—no bulky heatsink or awkward appearance. Overall, the 990 Pro EVO 1TB is fast, cool, easy to install, and visually clean. Definitely one of the best NVMe drives you can get right now.

Its not the fastest drive but it still easily manages gigabyte plus speeds in real world scenarios.

Reliable storage, consistant, i wont say a value, in normal sense, these drives are expensive, but, you can trust they wont crap out and loose all your data either .. Belonged to my best friend, my partner of 20 years. He past away. And going through his belongings, I found a few nvme drives. This is one of them. I had a motherboard for over a year, that I repaired, but never built the pc. When I found these drives, it made me finally build my first computer. And I used his 3 nvme drives as the core storage. I now have a amd 9600x granite ridge, 4 ddr5 8gig sticks, (2 are sodimm, with adapters), yep, laptop ram in a pc, and, 4 ddr5 sticks, in a gigabyte b650 gaming ax mb. With a rx 5700 xt gpu. Memory has been flawless. Always is w samsung solid state drives. He would have been proud of my pc. Im thankful I still have a few pieces of him forever. Like hes in my computer. They do get warm. Nut its expected at these transfer speeds..

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The contents of the box didn’t contain the screws need to install the SSD to the M2 slot of the motherboard. The recommended software to download and install for optimizing the drive resulted in reduced speeds overall. The capacity and speed from such a small device is so phenomenal so beyond the setbacks of installation this product does its job well.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Okay, so I just upgraded my old hard drive to a new Samsung SSD, and wow, what a difference! The speed increase is insane, everything loads up so much faster now. Booting up my computer takes seconds instead of minutes, it's seriously a game-changer. Definitely recommend this upgrade if you're looking for a performance boost without breaking the bank.

Was easy to install a fresh copy of Windows 11, and was fairly quick to get up, and running. I'd recommend this to anyone looking for a spacious drive, great indurance, and excellent speed. Can't beat a Samsung SSD. Hands down the best.

After finishing the build and installing windows, I had immediately noticed it ran significantly faster than my own computer. My computer ran off a Samsung ssd. This nvme was much faster and was sleek and perfect. I had no complications whatsoever while using it. It just works.

The laptop has a heatsink, which keeps this drive nice and cool and in PCiE 4x4, it boots up faster than ever before. I now have plenty of storage for games, and with the included migration software, installation was a breeze. 10/10, would recommend.

Its PCIe 5.0 x2 / PCIe 4.0 x4 hybrid interface offers decent speeds, while still being backward compatible with PCIe 4.0. It's a reliable, efficient upgrade, ideal for mainstream builds seeking a balance of speed and value without needing top-tier PCIe 5.0 performance.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I always buy Samsung storage or memory equipment when I'm in the market for an upgrade. This is because Samsung has a proven track record or quality and reliability consistently. It also helps they are manufacture the memory modules these devices utilize. So, it's basically a case of buying straight from the source, for me.

Made it specifically for games downloads and storage of anything related. I only wish that it would come with the hardware to install on mobo just in case it doesn't have any. My mobo did not come with any so I had to take one from an old PC.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The 990 EVO 2TB has been rock solid for me so far, with fast, consistent read and write speeds that made my whole setup feel noticeably smoother overall. I popped it in myself and the install was pretty straightforward, just a quick check of the motherboard and enclosure instructions and it was up and running. It has played nicely with the interface on my Mac, my Windows PC, and an external NVMe enclosure, and 2TB feels like a ton of space for the price. I have even reformatted it into different file systems for each use and it has stayed reliable every time, which is refreshing after running into compatibility headaches with other brands in the past.[1][2][3] Sources [1] Samsung 990 EVO SSD | Samsung Semiconductor Global https://semiconductor.samsung.com/consumer-storage/internal-ssd/990-evo/ [2] 990 EVO NVMe™ 2TB Internal SSD | Samsung US https://www.samsung.com/us/computing/memory-storage/solid-state-drives/990-evo-nvme-ssd-2tb-mz-v9e2t0b-am/ [3] Samsung SSD 990 EVO Review - PCMag https://www.pcmag.com/reviews/samsung-ssd-990-evo

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] No issues so far with the 2tb nvme, shows no problems on crystaldisk after almost two years of consistent use. Great for large downloads, especially combined with fiber ethernet, with top download speeds reaching almost a gigabyte per second.
I recommended this product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was thoroughly impressed with the ease of configuration and installation. The instructions and the additional software made the process seamless. I am so happy with my decision and will be purchasing another one to upgrade my other laptop.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] honestly the set up made it very difficult to use. my computer started glitching when i put in the disc, figuring out where it goes into was incredibly difficult. the instructions were in like thousands of languages so it didn’t help at all.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's super good, just a little pricey. I thought it was pricy before but it keeps jumping up. The m.2 is super reliable never had trouble would buy another. Never overheats, super efficient, and out performs my other ssd in speed and looks.
