Features

An SSD that changes everything

Experience unprecedented performance for heavy workloads and engineering applications with the high-capacity, highly reliable Samsung 960 PRO SSD. Designed for high-end PCs and workstations, the 960 PRO boasts a cutting-edge 48-layer Samsung V-NAND-based architecture that delivers next-generation performance in a compact M.2 form factor.

Experience next-gen performance

The NVMe™ interface of the 960 PRO supports PCIe® Gen 3 x4 lanes for an enhanced bandwidth and lower latency than SATA SSDs. You can experience massive sequential R/W (read/write) speeds up to 3,500/2,100 MB/s and random R/W speeds up to 440/360K IOPS, respectively*. This superb performance is enabled by an optimised package design.

*Sequential performance measurements based on CrystalDiskMark 5.0.2/IOmeter 1.1.0 and random performance measurements based on IOmeter 1.1.0.Performance may vary based on the SSD`s firmware version,system hardware and configuration.Test system configuration: Intel® Core i7-6700K CPU@4.0 GHz,DDR4 1700MHz 16GB,OS-Window 10 Pro x64,Chipset-ASROCK Z170 EXTREME 7

Break storage limits

Samsung provides advanced end-to-end integration, fine-tuning each component for optimal results. Individual chips are optimised to pack more in a package to maximise capacity. The 960 PRO enables you to store up to 2TB, which is unprecedented for NVMe SSDs.

*1GB=1,000,000,000 bytes by IDEMA. A certain portion of capacity may be used for system file and maintenance use, so the actual capacity may differ from what is indicated on the product label.

Bank on solid reliability

The 960 PRO boasts 1.2 PBW* for the 2TB model. For further reliability, DTG (Dynamic Thermal Guard) monitors and adjusts the temperature of the SSD, protecting data and achieving optimal responsiveness. Plus, the 960 PRO is backed by a 5-year limited warranty**.

*PBW : Petabytes Written
**Samsung's warranty does not cover any costs and expenses relating to SSDs' overhaul/assembly and data recovery for repairs or replacements.

Manage your drive like magic

With the newly upgraded Magician advanced software solution, you can manage, monitor and maintain your 960 PRO like an IT professional. Magician provides personalised firmware checking and additional functions tailored for individual user's drives. It even updates the firmware automatically to make sure that the drive's performance stays up to date.

Please see my video review where I benchmark the 960 pro to two 840 EVOS in RAID0, and I also threw in a HDD comparison as well. Enjoy!

I've installed Windows 10 Professional on this 960 Pro NVMe drive as a boot drive, and it is blazing fast. I have not encountered reports of throttling due to heat, in part because I am using this 1 TB drive as a boot drive and have offloaded the majority of file operations to secondary and tertiary drives. As far as installation and setup, this small stick couldn't be easier to slide into an M.2 slot and tighten down.

I installed this unit on Z270X MOBO with i7-7700K cpu which is 2017 current and supposed to be M.2 friendly. First the drive wasn't recognised. When I finally got it working it was super unstable with multiple freeze on boot and BSOD. I have pulled the drive and reverted back to 850 EVO and my system has returned to stability. It's taken a month to get the "new" drive serviced and it still isn't back.

Drive has been working extremely well with an older H97 chipset with PCIe Gen 2x2 on the M2 slot. Read and write are bottlenecked by the older M2 slot to about 800MB/s in and out, still better than I would get with SATA 6. I can definitely tell a difference in speed over the older 840 EVO that it replaced. I'm still considering an M2 PCI card but for now am very happy with as is.

I got two of these and set them up in Raid-0 in a new build. I have to say it was easier than I expected and they worked flawlessly together. Have been using for about 6 months now and have been very happy. Love the M2 design both for low-profile and ridiculous levels of speed.

Pros: - Best write speed I have seen from a single SSD to date (over 2000MB/s) - Large 1 TB capacity - Extremely durable and reliable drive - Read speed on par with 950 Pro 256 GB (over 2000MB/s) Cons: - Read speed slightly slower than 960 Pro 512GB version

This drive I installed so I could use as a boot up for Win 10 and it works just fine. Very fast-about 5 times faster than the SSD I was using to bootup. The price is a little high but you get what you pay for and so far, no problems with running hot.

I have an MSI X99A Gaming 7 and my speeds for my 960 PRO 512GB (onboard M.2 slot) are 2200/1800 or lower according to Magician, which is very close to the same as my 950 PRO 512GB (PCIe Adapter). I have installed the drivers, disconnected all other drives and removed the M.2 PCI card for the 950, checked that AHCI and not RAID is selected in BIOS, installed and then removed Intel RST, even moved the video card to PCI slot 3, and played with BIOS and rebooted many, many times. The 960 PRO did run much slower (800MB/s) when I set it to PCH mode instead of Auto. Otherwise, the fastest read/write achieved in my system is 2400/1800. The 960 PRO is still about as fast as the 950 PRO and costs a little less. I don't know if the issue is with the motherboard or the 960 PRO. I would still recommend this drive to a friend because many others are seeing the advertised speeds - unfortunately, I am not. MOBO: MSI X99A Gaming 7 CPU: Intel Core i7-6850K Processor RAM: CORSAIR DOMINATOR Platinum Series 32GB (2 x 16GB) DDR4 DRAM 3000MHz GPU: EVGA GeForce GTX 1060 3GB SC GAMING OS: Microsoft Windows 10 Home 64 Bit BOOT: Samsung 960 PRO Series - 512GB PCIe NVMe - M.2 Internal SSD (MZ-V6P512BW)

Pre-Ordered. Got mine 11-17. The package looks nice. Installed on Win 10 64 pro. Asus x99 Strix. Samsung magician 4.7 reads 3550mb , 2125mb. The back of the drive has a copper sticker. I was able to peel off the the sticker revealing the copper strip, not sure if it'll help cooling much. The other thing I did was peel off the top sticker and affix ramsinks to the controller and and the memory. I'd likely never hit a thermal wall but I used this setup on my 950 pro and liked it. This may void the warranty? Some may say this is expensive or the value isn't good. To me I am getting premium performance so I expect to pay premium price. Although this was about 20 dollars cheaper then the 950 pro when I bought thathis drive The negatives of this, pre-order is my own fault. No NVME 2.0 as shown in desription. Also no new Samsung magician yet. No mounting screw, not a huge deal but those things are so small losing them is easy, I'd love to have an extra one. Also I pre-ordered before they mentioned watch_dogs 2. And as of yet I haven't gotten a code for the game, I would hope they will take care of customers in this situation but who knows. I also pre-orderd a 960Evo for my game storage. I fid that before the offer as well
