Excellent product
Put in a new build with two motherboard slots for these. Decided to use it for the OS and the results were phenomenal. Fast access, easy to install, and reliable. Great for gaming

High writing speeds and storage for gaming
I got this to replace my prebuilt PC but to also use as a second SSD. Turns out it might be better to just use it as a dedicated storage so I dont have to redownload everything and reformat all the drives. I did download a clean install of windows on it but then decided to stick with my other one and use this for videos and gaming storage.Installing it was easy, normal SSD size but I DID notice it psychically felt better than my intel one from my prebuilt. You can feel quality! The SSD is all black and has 2 stickers on the back for heat distribution which helps along with my heatsink. It runs BETTER even in the 2nd SSD slot with fast writing speeds and noticeably faster transferring files.I’m not a huge tech person even though I do game and build my own PC, whoah I know lol, but even I can tell the samsung 990 evo is a beast, and that says something if I out of everyone can see that!Highly reccomended.

Had an extra storage slot in HP laptop. Simply dropped this card in, and got extra storage. Perfect for my gaming laptop. Fast and reliable. Good value too. Can also be used for backups.

If cloning OS drive to this, get an M2 enclosure
Got it on sale. Been using EVO 960 and EVO 970 in other builds, and they’re fast and fantastic. On a mini PC I have, the OS was on an 2.5″ SSD. I slapped an M2 SSD in, and could replicate the OS to it no problem. But, wife’s laptop had a 125GB M2 SSD as only drive. Didn’t have a 2.5″ SSD. Got this 1TB EVO 990 as a nice replacement. Saw vids showing how to use an M2 enclosure to easily replicate a laptops old M2 OS drive to the new replacement. But, that would cost $30, I had a 2.5″ SSD + 2.5″ enclosure already, and I was being cheap. So, I replicated the OS drive to the 2.5″ external, tore apart her laptop, installed the blank 1TB EVO 990, and tried booting from external 2.5″ SSD. Laptop DID NOT want to boot. Kept going into Windows Recovery like the Windows install was corrupted. Spent 2 days messing around with options. FINALLY.. just popped $30 to buy an M2 enclosure (like I should have from the start). Ripped her laptop apart again, put the old 125GB M2 SSD in, booted.. got into Windows. Put the 1TB EVO 990 into the M2 enclosure. Plugged in, recognized as external drive. Replicated OS drive to it. Tried booting from it, but laptop acted like it was corrupted again. At this point, I figured the laptop was just prima donna and had issues booting from external drives. So, on a leap of faith I ripped apart her laptop AGAIN and slapped the cloned 1TB EVO 990 in. After putting it all back together AGAIN, it booted just fine into Windows, and now she has TONS of drive space left.So, if you’re getting this as a replacement for a laptop’s M2 drive… don’t be stupid like me and waste a bunch of time. Just buy an M2 Enclosure and make replication easy on yourself.I ran some winsat times on my old EVO 960 vs EVO 990, and the 990 is getting ~1000 MB/s on random 16 vs the 960 ~1400 MB/s. So, the 990 seems slower there.But, on the 64 bit read/write, 990 is getting ~3200 MB/s on BOTH, while the 960 is getting ~3000 on the read and ~1800 on the write.So, the 990 is blazing along. It’s also newer than the 960 I have, which may be seeing wear-n-tear impact performance. So, I may eventually get one of these to replace my 960, too.like 3200 MB/s on

great drive at great price
It would get a full 5 star review but I had to wait for a week to get it. don’t know why they put things on sale then don’t have the stock. so if waiting isn’t an issue its a great drive. if you need it fast buy from another retailer that will actually have it in stock

Fast and easy to install
Fast drive and temperature runs around 53C. Did add a $10 heat sink and that kept temperature steady around 50C. Good drive and works fine so far.

Workhorse for SBC
There are many, many articles on the eventual failure of microSD cards in Single Board Computers. I can attest to that fact, notwithstanding the superior warranty service from the more popular manufacturers. Therefore for my important SBC solutions, when the feature exists, I try to migrate to SSD storage especially if a boot option is available.This specific SSD fulfills most of my basic criteria, 2280 form factor notwithstanding – operations, capacity, speed and, for a limited time(?) price.

I can’t believe how far things have come in the past 15ish yrs since I build my last computer. This thing is tiny!! Smaller than the memory in my new build. Works well, very quick and easy to install.

Very fast and cheaper than last gen samsung drivesSamsung are always the way to go
NM –
Very fast speed for mid level ssd would recommend for boot drive. Flawlesss reboot speeds for gaming. Using on a z790 mobo with 13600k and 3090 no problems and solid temps with heatsink would also recommend as more affordable Samsung option over 990 pro
