Features

Next-level SSD performance

Unleash the power of the Samsung PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD 980 PRO for your next-level computing. Leveraging the PCIe 4.0 interface, the 980 PRO delivers double the data transfer rate of PCIe 3.0 while being backward compatible for PCIe 3.0 for added versatility.

* The NVM Express® design mark is a registered trademark of NVM Express, Inc.

Maximum speed

Powered by Samsung custom Elpis Controller for PCIe 4.0 SSD, the 980 PRO is optimised for speed. It delivers read speeds up to 7,000 MB/s, making it 2 times faster than PCIe 3.0 SSDs and 12.7 times faster than SATA SSDs. The 980 PRO achieves max speeds on PCIe 4.0 and may vary in other environments.

* Performance may vary depending on the SSD’s firmware version and the system hardware & system configuration. Performance measurements are based on IOmeter 1.1.0. The write performances were measured with Intelligent TurboWrite technology being activated. The sequential write performances after Intelligent TurboWrite region are: up to 500 MB/s(250GB), 1,000 MB/s(500GB) and 2,000 MB/s(1TB).
* Test system configuration: AMD Ryzen 9 3900X 12-Core Processor CPU@3.79GHz, DDR4 2666MHz 16GBx2, OS-Windows 10 Pro 64bit, Chipset-ASUS-X570-ROG CROSSHAIR VIII FORMULA.

980 PRO is wonderful. This NVME drive can give you the maximum speed of NVME 4.0. I install this into my new system. It is a blazing SSD in the market. Running lots of graphics and data analysis is not a problem as the SSD has high-performance bandwidth capabilities and excellent cooling. I highly recommend this SSD to those who find a NVME 4.0 drive for their new or upgrading their old system. Pros: - Speed - Unlikely to ever fail - Warranty - Sampson magician Cons: - May run hot - make sure to cool it appropriately (probably not the best choice for hot laptop chassis) - Needs pcie 4.0 (again, excludes most laptops)

Samsung 980 Pro NVMe SSD is the true next generation storage solution. I have been using some decent PCIe 3.0 NVMe SSDs, but when it is paired with my Ryzen 9 3900X and X570, this is a next leap forward in terms of speed; simply amazing performance. In my storage benchmark, it shows 6,708MB/s sequential read, and 4,874MB/s sequential write. So this is perfect option those who read and write big files from/to it. Only problem is that I could not find any games and software that can take full advantages of its raw speed. Well it's not Samsung 980 Pro SSD problem anyway. I highly recommend Samsung 980 Pro NVMe SSD for those who want to experience next generation PCIe 4.0 speed.

I recently finished building a new gaming PC using a motherboard capable of supporting PCIe Gen 4 and installed both a 500 GB and also a 1TB Samsung 980 Pro. I was extremely impressed with the Read/Write speeds, as they were spot on as advertised. Both drives did not disappoint, I was able to receive over 6500 MB/s read speeds and over 5000 Write speeds via the Samsung Magician App. Through this amazing app, I was also able to optimize my drives through performance optimization. Samsung hit a home run with the new 980 Pro Gen 4 PCIe NVMe SSDs. If you are a gamer, I would highly recommend these!!!

i purchased this device strictly for the speed of the device and for the most part the unit hits the advertised speed. unfortunately, the difference between my old pci-e 4.0 m.2 (5000 mb/s) drive and this new pci-e 4.0 m.2 (6900 mb/s) drive was not enough to physically feel much difference. i was worried about heat so i installed an external heatsink on the device prior to installation. the heatsink keeps the device at or below 60c so i am please with the temps. the device does have a heat spreader built into the label but since i used an external heatsink i do not know how effective the heat spreader is at controlling the temperature. overall if you want bragging rights this drive is for you.

My son and I am working on our first PC Gaming build, and had been looking for any opportunities to maximize speed and performance. This SSD is the perfect one for his needs. As the build is not yet complete, I had to test it out on another machine that had an M.2 slot. Needless to say, it out performs what the could handle, giving me 3,000+ MB/s for both reads and writes. I expect it to perform even better on the Asus ROG Strix B550-E , which actually supports PCIe 4.0 The 5 year warranty is also a very nice perk, as it is indicative of the quality of the Drive (that Samsung believes it will last 5 years in every day use without issue) and knowing that a quality company like Samsung is standing behind their product.

The Samsung 980 PRO 500GB Internal Gaming SSD is worth your hard-earned money if you want faster load times. This Solid State drive is fast and no SATA cables are required. The price of the 980 Pro, is a solid choice for gaming and even external storage. I planned to install the drive in one of my laptops but neither had the slots for this type of internal drive. The 980 Pro performs well in an external enclosure as well. I currently use it as extended storage for my laptops. However, I plan to buy a converter for my laptop to replace my old drive with it.

I bought the 500-gigabyte version for my brand new Windows 11 computer. To be honest, I only wanted the 980 Pro. I went through a lot of information for many flagship M.2 drives of various manufacturers and for me, the 980 Pro seemed to be the best. From the first day, I installed this drive on my computer and installed the Windows system on it, it worked without any problems. My 980 Pro works blazing fast and without any bit of problems. The temperature in this drive is always noticeably lower under load than in my other drive from another manufacturer.

Wow! The Samsung 980 Pro is a game changer(both literally and figuratively). Swapping this baby in my pc was a breeze and I immediately noticed improved boot up speeds. The speeds of this drive are easily the best feature! Games basically instantly load up without any load screen really having the chance to settle fully on my monitor. I thought my old drive was fast but Samsung makes my old one look horrible. I’m a huge gamer so literally everything I store on this is gaming applications which download and launch super fast. I do just wish the drive had more space but the speed more than makes up for that. The Samsung drive software is very useful and helps you keep tabs on exactly how the drive is working and is very easy to use.

I used this 980 Pro SSD to upgrade the hard drive in my son PC. I figured it will be a big performance improvement since the drive in his PC was a Samsung 860 EVO SATA III and this one is PCIe 4.0 NVMe m2 drive. I cloned the Samsung 860 SSD and no problem encountered; Removed the old drive and installed the 980 Pro drive. I was impressed with the improved performance. Boot up time, opening applications, disk related activities were much faster. I ran a quick benchmark of the Samsung 860 and Samsung 980 Pro using CrystalDiskMark and the differences was 6-7 times faster. Since this computer doesn’t support PCIe 4.0, I imagine this 980 Pro SSD will perform even better with PCIe 4.0 interface. This drive is gear toward power users or gaming pc.

This SSD is fast! Installing Windows 10 and all relevant software was quick with no errors. I did notice a few seconds load improvement on Final Fantasy XIV. I did see a big improvement with file transfer speeds as well. The biggest improvement was for Java edition Minecraft where I saw load times cut in half. You will need a newer motherboard with a 4.0 M.2 slot to take full advantage of this drive. As you can see from the screenshots the performance is greatly improved in a 4.0 slot. My motherboard did come with a heat sink for my M.2 and underload temps remained under 35 Celsius. This drive is a beast and I highly recommend this drive for for both your main drive and game drive. My only wish is that they made them in a 2TB capacity.

This drive is Quick Games install lighting fast. I had a bumpy road with install. My laptop did not want to detect the drive at first and then had some issues with getting the drive to initialize. After a few hours of in and out and and settings changes i was finally able to get the drive to initialize and work. Temp gets a little warm in the laptop so Air flow is key. I installed as a second drive to store all my games. Performance wise it is 5 stars but i had to take one away for the difficulty with setup and getting the drive to work. I had multiple hardware errors and Samsung support wanted me to ship the drive back to them for repair but ended up getting it to work out in the end. The drive came packaged very well. I was impressed by that.

samsung had the recipe for success by keeping their flash as mlc while everyone else went to tlc or "3d nand". this gave them the edge in speed for years. and with the fact that the average home user wont use up the number of writes on an mlc flash drive inside of 10 years (i actually have an old vertex 2 from 2009 still going just fine) they decided they could afford to switch to the same tactic that everyone else is using of some slc cache and then very slow tlc or even more than 3 layer flash for final storage. will you get the advertised speeds? yes for a while till you run out of that single layer cache. will i recommend it to a friend? no! do your research and find out which other pcie4.0 m.2 drives beat this one and buy literally any of those.

I originally planned to use the drive in the PlayStation 5 however the PS5 isn't ready for internal drives yet. So I'm going to try to use an external enclosure and I'll report back on that endeavor. However, owning all the Samsung Pro drives since the 950 Pro I'm sure this 980 Pro is going to scream! Just as expected the 980 Pro performs even in an external enclosure. I currently use it as extended storage for my PS4 and PS5 and of course, it is dead silent and VERY fast! There is no competition for a Samsung 980 Pro.

The 980 pro is the heavyweight champ when paired with x570 based systems. I have run over 18 different NVMe's ranging from budget Kingflash to Samsungs own products from the same generation and nothing matches the 980Pro @500Gb. I've put the 980pro in many builds I've the last year and a half, some that are beat on like a drum in an AC/DC concert. No failures and no slow down. I've removed 2tb non Samsung 980s and replaced the with 500GB and 1TB 980s as they are still the best in the configurations I build.

samsung’s 980 pro is a pcie 4 m.2 nvme ssd. this is a high-end product; this is the fastest flash-based ssd i can purchase. though this quoted performance from samsung is very exciting, you will need a system which has pcie 4 to reach this number. samsung has also highlighted intelligent turbowrite 2.0 technology which delivers 5 times the buffer size. that means under large workload will not decline the performance. this ssd is also built-in advanced thermal control solutions allow for the drive to perform well at cool temperatures. it is important for me, and i plan to use this ssd to build my ai training server system. overall, this ssd is fastest ssd i can find from the market, and it has all-new elpis controller, backwards-compatibility with pcie 3.0, and nvme 1.3 support.

I had a tough time deciding on what device to install this SSD on. I already had some basic Samsung SSD's installed on both my desktop and laptop and already are pretty fast, but decided that I would try it on my desktop PC just to see how much faster it would be. The booting and loading differences are like night and day. It can handle more commands with the newer controller's larger I/O queues and also helping with power consumption. The new tech for temperature control is top notch and only adds to its overall value. Make sure that you have a good cooling system installed. Transferring files have improved and my gaming feels buttery smooth. I suggest installing Samsung's Magician software for even more hands-on and control of your SSD. I am undoubtedly beyond pleased. 2 thumbs up!

The bleeding edge of speed and technology is here with the PCIE 4.0 compatible Samsung PRO line of internal SSDs. Quickly installed in the standard m.2 2280 form factor, Windows picks it right up and helps you put it to good use right away. Regardless of use - productivity, gaming or your primary Windows drive the improvements in speed over a standard platter-based drive ranks among the biggest upgrade you can ever get for a PC. I'll never forget my first upgrade to SSD, watching my PC boot before my monitor was even finished initializing - it's amazing. With PCIE 4.0 compatibility the Samsung 980 PRO helps you get the most out of the latest chipsets - and perhaps soon could serve as an expansion option for the PS5 once support has been enabled for the expansion slot? We'll soon find out!

I've owned and used the 980 pro for over a year. I bought it to run modern games at a faster load speed and it works magnificently. Its improved my gaming experience by leaps and bounds. Most games have almost zero load time. I've had no issues at all with its performance or any form of errors or malfunctions. The best part is since Samsung owns and builds the components themselves, you are guaranteed not only top quality parts but the exact components used when Samsung does its performance tests. Unlike other brands that must rely on supply chains that are not that reliable and forces them to use alternative components. Which results in quality issues and performance issues. Overall I've had the best experience with the 980 pro and will be upgrading to new, even faster versions in the future.

If you are a gamer or content creator, this drive is definitely yours. You will definitely get the maximum speed. This Samsung 980 Pro changed the game. The fact that this Samsung SSD 980 Pro is a TLC drive allows you to write much faster. The longest drive, I was looking for a drive that can handle what I’m doing and I finally found it. Installing the drive took less than 1 minute because I was building a new system and the motherboard was still out of the case. I would highly recommend

The Samsung 980 PRO NVMe SSD is the pinnacle of performance for memory. I remember the first time I used a computer with a SSD for the operating system and was blown away with the speed. The Samsung 980 PRO further improves the speed at which your computer can perform. My computer has a x570 motherboard and was able to take advantage of the speed gains from PCIe Gen4 and improves my game performance and file transfer speeds over my current SSD. The Samsung Magician software was great to clone the drive and use to maintain and monitor the Samsung 980 PRO. I appreciate the care put into thermal management through the software and thermal label because nothing slows down a PC than heat. I wish I could have tested on my PS5 but the SSD expansion port is disabled but will try it once it allows it.

The 980 PRO PCIe 500GB SSD offers noticeable improvements over traditional hard drives. Its read and write speeds significantly reduce boot times and application loading. The storage capacity is sufficient for installing the operating system, essential software, and some additional files or medium-sized games. With no moving parts, the SSD operates quietly and is less prone to physical damage. Overall, it’s a practical storage solution for users seeking enhanced system performance.

unfortunately you will get the advertised write speeds only for a very limited time, before they drop close to 1,000 mb/sec. i built my pc about three months ago and initially the write speed was phenomenal. while investigating some recent performance issues however i did a few benchmarks that all showed a write speed between 1,000 mb/sec and 1,200 mb/sec. a quick google search confirmed that this is a common, and to my knowledge as of today (03/23/2021) unresolved issue.

I'm an IT guy and this SSD has no trouble keeping up with my needs. Reads speeds of 6,900 MB/s give it great performance. It comes with a suite of tools, so I can manage an type of data I am using with it. The bandwidth capabilities can handle multiple graphics and data analysis too. I worried about heat issues, but this SSD has nickel coating and a heat spreader label that manages heat of the NAND chip extremely well. Look forward to using this on a daily basis.

Purchased the 980 Pro Nvme Gen4 SSD more than a year ago for my gaming PC as the windows boot drive and have been using it since then. The 980 Pro series is undoubtedly one of the best Gen 4 internal SSDs on the market right now. Pretty nice read/write speeds, amazing data integrity, and the accompanying Samsung Magician software gives a ton of information about the SSDs TBW, temperatures, health, firmware upgrades, and a lot of other things. Totally recommended.

This SSD card was an upgrade to an older one installed in my home computer. I have to say I was pleasantly surprised by the complete upgrade I got from this one in both speed and space, the boot up time has exponentially decreased I have a lot more space for anything we need and it’s just been a great product all around. If you’re looking for faster loading speeds, ease of install and an all around upgrade in SSD performance this is the product for you. 10/10

This device is working just fine. However, the support software, Magician, is not working as expected. It reports that it is incompatible with the Intel driver, which is delivered by a Windows update. Thus, can't communicate with the device to show temperature and, eventually, the need for firmware update. Samsung did do a poor job on that respect. And, guess what, the only way to update the firmware is via Magician. The art of painting oneself in a corner.

I upgraded from a 970 Pro as my main drive and thought performance gain would be unnoticeable. I was wrong. My MOBO supports PCI-E 4 for NVME storage and noticed a significant increase in speed compared to one of the best PCI-E 3 storage devices. Both read and write speeds were increased and noticeable during the load time of games installed on the drive. In a professional workflow time to write to the drive was significantly increased. Compared to other PCI-E 4 devices on the market, I prefer the Samsung as it does not come with an external heat sink. My MOBO has an integrated heat sink as part of the board design so the 980 Pro slotted in easily and was compatible with the stock heat sink on multiple MOBOs tested. I can't wait till PS5 updates to add support for add-on storage and I will be testing this drive in the PS5 next.

This SSD has awesome Performance, hands down the fastest memory I’ve ever used. Load times are greatly reduced with this Samsung 980 Pro 500GB NVMe drive. I noticed the package states read speeds of 7000MB/s and after looking at my specs I can say it’s true. Installing this drive was a breeze and windows recognized the drive right away which made installation plug and play. Keep in mind you will need a fourth generation PCI slot, recommended at least 4 channels 4x4, but 4x2 will work. The Samsung management software is amazing at monitoring your dives health which in turn help you keep an eye on temperatures. I can’t wait until Sony unlocks the SSD bay on the PS5. I know it will speed up load times there as well. Because this drive has a M.2 form factor, not much room is need for most upgrades. I do highly recommend this drive for gamers.

I must say that this Samsung 980 PRO 500GB Internal Gaming SSD is a definite Must Have drive for anyone who seriously considers gaming and any high productivity computing. This little stick has so much to offer and I am glad I purchase it. Installation is quick and smooth. And then the magic begins: in-game menu switching is instantaneous, load times are super fast thanks to its powerful transfer rates. Also this drive delivers 2x the data transfer rate of PCIe 3.0, while maintaining compatibility with PCIe 3.0, so if your PC does not have latest PCIe 4.0 you are still in good hands! I am looking forward to putting this drive to use in my PS5, it will be a definite upgrade. I am very pleased with its performance and cannot even imagine having something faster in the future. I mean this drive is really more than enough for any game user.

Technology is just amazing and NVME is one happy byproduct of that. I already had a Samsung 970 Evo for my main drive and just when I think it can't get better Samsung releases the 980 Pro. My boot times were already amazingly quick using the 970 so whereas I didn't notice a huge difference there drive to drive transfer are so fast I almost despise having to use a mechanical as my media storage. I look forward to the day when the drives get larger and price per/mb continues to drop so I can replace all my mechanical drives. It's also my understanding that the new drive for PS5 is using the 980 pro so I will definitely be buying another one for extra storage on my console. If you care about speed and great quality this Samsung drive is hands down what you should be using in a new or existing pc build or backup storage in your new favorite video game console.

My kid and I were anxiously awaiting the arrival of the equipment and finally it arrived in a small box. We opened the package and were very impressed by the size of the accessory. My son said that it was too small to be able to fit 500GB of data in the system but he was very impressed by the package. The next step was to connect it to the system and so the adventure begins. So yes, we had to open the laptop and install it, but that was more fun than anything. Once we got it into the system, we were able to test run and it is quite impressive. Data transfer seems to be quite fast and smooth. Downloading content seems to be seamlessly. He is happy with the performance thus far. Now we have to wait to see if its performance does not decrease with time or when the SSD start to get fuller. He has started to transfer his pictures and songs to the system.

The new Samsung 980 Pro 500GB NVMe gaming drive is the best storage option for gaming and productivity purposes. Installation was a breeze. I replaced my much slower SATA drive with the new Samsung drive, and I noticed the difference instantly. My Windows boot time drastically improved and the overall speed of navigating and gaming made my CPU feel brand new. I am really impressed with this drive, as my loads times are greatly reduced now. Next I would suggest downloading the Samsung Magician software which gives in-depth analysis and allows you to monitor the drive's health. This is a must have and I'm glad that Samsung included this software with the purchase of the drive. Samsung did not disappoint with the new Samsung 980 Pro. You will not go back once you experience the speed of PCIe 4.0. This drive takes gaming to the next level literally. I recommend this product as a must buy.

My wife installed the Samsung 980 Pro in her gaming computer. It dramatically reduced game loading times. You do need a PCIE 4 computer system to take advantage of these speeds. The card itself is the size of a piece of candy and disappears into the motherboard. It spreads and dissipates heat evenly. According to her motherboard temp sensors it stays under 30 C even under load. Very impressed!

The Samsung 980 Pro is amazingly fast and is the future of hard drive storage. My read/write speeds were very close to advertised speeds of 6900/5000 MB/s.  It runs off the newer PCIe 4 technology. You will need a motherboard & processor that has PCIe 4 to get advertised speeds. My motherboard is a GIGABYTE X570 AORUS Elite Wi-Fi with AMD Ryzen 5 3600 processor. If you do not have PCIe 4 it is backwards compatible to PCIe 3, but expect half the read/write speeds.  The 980 Pro is great for gaming because loading times for a game is nonexistent.  This SSD has a M.2 2280 form factor which is the size of a piece of gum. The small size is perfect for Mini-ITX builds. It also doesn't produce much heat so a heatshield is not necessary. The solder points were clean and strong. It feels durable. Samsung provides a 5 year warranty.  Overall I am very happy with Samsung 980 Pro and I highly recommend it.

I knew m.2 ssd's are fast but I never knew how much it can help with my production workload. I've been currently using a regular 2.5 SSD for my video editing and large 4k files still had issues when scrubbing thru the timeline. Ever since I installed this in my pc and started reading and writing files to it, the entire process is seamless. The new Playstation 5 is made to run off of pcie 4.0 m.2 ssd's so I will be sure to test it on there as well when I get my hands on one. With how fast performance is on my pc, I can assume it'll be just as quick on the consoles. Price wise this costs about the same as when I bought my 2.5 SSD when they first came out and for 5 years I've been using that with no problem so this is a great buy for the future as I feel anything faster will have diminishing returns. Samsung once again shows that they're the fastest on the market for both professional and personal storage needs.

As long as you keep your PC cool, the transfer rates on the SSD will not slow. We just replaced a lot of fans in my husband's PC and this is really helping with his boot speed and gaming. It's also great if he's doing large data transfers. I would recommend the Samsung Magician software though to keep firmware up to date.

I want to preface this review with a quick bit of personal information. I've been building computers for over a decade and love computing hardware. In recent years, I've been astounded with advances in storage in both capacity and I/O throughput. The Samsung 980 PRO V-NAND SSD (500GB) found its home in my newest home lab/gaming build. I've trusted Samsung's SSDs for years now and I have great trust in this drive. With a 5 year warranty out of the box, it's an incredible value for the performance you get. On a fresh install of Windows 10, I'm getting a sub-5 second boot from POST to login. The capacity of this drive impresses me for the price as I can install much more than just the OS and a few essential applications on it without filling it up. Installation of the drive was simple, but it'll vary for each motherboard. PLEASE READ the manual for how to install it correctly (especially if there's a heatsink). If performance and value are essential to your next build or upgrade, seriously consider this drive.

I fought this 8 months ago in Dec 2021. The performance uptime is awesome, never had any problem so far. Easy installation, setup and Great read/write speed. Didn't notice much difference in Gen 4 and Gen 3 though. So you can save some buck going with Gen4 Nvme.

I bought it more than 3 years ago, and it still good at this time. I checked the health ck edition and it is still good. Every time, my friends want to build new PC or upgrade their storage, I always recommend Samsung Pro SSD for their storage. Love it !

No instructions provided to permit operation within windows 10 under RAID configuration and PCI 4.0 only working under PCI 3.0, Windows/Intel Driver only - Samsung do not have a Driver for this product which is a real problem.

it’s fast and makes a huge difference in load times. Games run smoother, everything feels snappier, and it won’t overheat on you. If you’re looking for an old but reliable model you cant do too bad with this one tbh

Samsung’s 980 Pro is a PCIe 4 M.2 NVMe SSD. This is a high-end product; this is the fastest flash-based SSD I can purchase. From specification, the sequential read and write speed are 6900 Mbps / 5000 Mpbs. Though this quoted performance from Samsung is very exciting,, you will need a system which has PCIe 4 to reach this number. The installation is simple; you will a motherboard or laptop with a capable NVMe supported M.2 slot. You can need to remove laptop back cover; you will need to be careful about that. Samsung has also highlighted Intelligent TurboWrite 2.0 technology which delivers 5 times the buffer size. That means under large workload will not decline the performance. This SSD is also built-in advanced thermal control solutions allow for the drive to perform well at cool temperatures. It is important for me, and I plan to use this SSD to build my AI training server system. Overall, this SSD is fastest SSD I can find from the market, and it has all-new Elpis controller, backwards-compatibility with PCIe 3.0, and NVMe 1.3 support. It is target for gaming user, but, it is also good for my AI training server.

This M.2 PCI-e NVME drive is one of the fastest drives on the market. NvMe SSD is a must have if your a Gamer, Programmer, anything really. Large data transfer, fast boot up. The drive comes with a utility to migrate or clone the original drive which is a nice touch. Samsung also supplies a tool to test the speed of drive and display the SMART information in addition to check and/or update the firmware of the drive. Aside from the fast read and write speeds, the Samsung 980 Pro also features an enhanced Intelligent TurboWrite 2.0 technology. Compared to the previous Intelligent TurboWrite, Intelligent TurboWrite 2.0 provides up to 5 times larger buffer. Behind the sticker on the back of the ssd you can see a copper heat spreader hidden beneath the sticker another nice touch. That’s quite a bit more than my current favourite NVMe SSD recommendation. Though this performance from Samsung is very exciting, im in love with this SSD. Test system on: * Motherboard: ASUS ROG MAXIMUS XI HERO and StriX * CPU: Intel i9 * RAM: 2x 16GB DDR4-3200 PCIe Gen4 performance AES 256-bit encryption Black PCB Software package 5-year warranty I recommended 100%.
