More power-efﬁcient performance.
Higher performance usually consumes morepower. But, built on a low-power architecture,
Samsung’s newly designed controller dramaticallyimproves SSD’s power efﬁciency by up to 50%
compared to the 980 PRO.
* Based on internal test results of the 1TB model.

HeatsinkTop

Smart thermal solution
Sink that heat.
The slim heatsink dissipates heat to prevent
performance drops from overheating. Get stable heat
control, and minimal fan noise for heavy-graphic
gaming. The thin body is compatible withPlayStation® 5, desktops, and laptops meeting thePCI-SIG® D8 standard. The heatsink’s futuristic design
adds style to heat control, now with RGB lights.

5-year limited warranty* The NVM ExpressTM design mark is a registered trademark of NVM Express, Inc.
* Results are based on a comparison with Samsung PCIe 3.0 NVMe SSDs and SATA SSDs.
* Sequential and random write performance was measured with Intelligent TurboWrite technology being activated. Intelligent TurboWrite operates only within a speciﬁc data transfer size.
Performance may vary depending on SSD’s ﬁrmware, system hardware & conﬁguration and other factors. For detailed information, please 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 64bit, Chipset - ASRock-X570 Taichi.
* PCIe 4.0’s highest theoretical sequential read speed is 8,000 MB/s - 990 PRO reaches 7450 MB/s as of Q3 2022.
*4TB to be released in 2023.
* PCI-SIG®D8 standard spec: 8.8mm.
* DirectStorage technology from Microsoft loads games faster than before by leveraging the multiple GB/sec speed of modern 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.
* Five years or TBW (Total bytes written) , whichever comes ﬁrst. For more information on the warranty, please refer to the enclosed warranty document in the package.
* Samsung's warranty will be void if any of the following instructions violated.
