Absolutely Obliterated My Old SATA SSD – A Must-Have for Gamers
As a PC builder and heavy gamer, my old SATA SSD was becoming a serious bottleneck for my i7-12700K and RTX 5070 Ti system. I chose the Samsung 990 EVO Plus 2TB to be my new primary OS and games drive, and the difference is staggering. This isn’t just an upgrade; it’s a complete transformation.Real-World Performance: The Numbers Don’t LieThe specs are impressive (up to 7,250 MB/s read), but the real-world results are what matter. Here’s what I saw after cloning my Windows 11 Pro installation and my main games over:Windows Boot Time: Cut from ~25 seconds to under 8 seconds.Game Load Times: Loading into my save file in Cyberpunk 2077 went from over 30 seconds to about 9 seconds. Levels in other demanding games load almost instantly.File Transfers: Moving a 100GB game folder from my old drive to this one took just a couple of minutes, a task that used to take over 15 minutes.The PCIe Gen 4 interface is the key here. Day-to-day use is incredibly snappy, and the drive doesn’t slow down even when installing a huge game while running other programs, thanks to the Intelligent TurboWrite 2.0 cache.Installation & A Note on HeatsinksThe M.2 2280 form factor made installation a breeze on my ASUS PRIME Z690-P motherboard. One of the main “cons” of this drive is that it doesn’t include a heatsink. This was not an issue for me, as my motherboard has its own built-in M.2 heatsinks which keep the drive running cool under load. However, if your motherboard doesn’t have one, I’d recommend buying a cheap M.2 heatsink to ensure you don’t get any thermal throttling during intense, long gaming sessions.Final Verdict: Worth Every Penny for a High-End BuildWhile the Samsung 990 EVO Plus is a premium drive with a premium price, it’s one of the most impactful upgrades I’ve ever made to my PC. The sheer speed and responsiveness it brings to the entire system are undeniable. If you have a PCIe Gen 4 compatible system and you’re still using an older SATA SSD or a slower NVMe drive, this is a no-brainer. It unlocks the full potential of your other components.I’ve attached a photo of the drive installed on my motherboard under the heatsink. Highly recommended!
Blazing Fast and Reliable Storage!
I upgraded to the Samsung 990 EVO Plus 1TB, and it has completely transformed my system’s performance. The speed difference is night and day compared to my old drive — boot times are almost instant, applications open in a flash, and large file transfers are effortless.Installation was straightforward, and Samsung’s Magician software makes it easy to monitor health and optimize performance. I also appreciate the excellent reliability Samsung SSDs are known for, which gives me confidence in storing important files.Whether you’re a gamer, content creator, or just someone who wants their computer to feel lightning fast, this SSD is worth every penny. Absolutely recommend!
Snappy little drive
Love the install ease of this drive, while it doesn’t come with a screw my motherboard did have a built in clasp. Bought this for my wife’s gaming PC as she was running out of space. Total install time took less than 10 minutes. Speeds seem great, the storage space was awesome for the price, and very happy with the performance.
Best SSD in the market 👌
The Samsung 990 EVO Plus 2TB is a high-performance NVMe SSD designed for users who need fast, reliable storage—whether you’re a gamer, a content creator, or someone looking to upgrade their PC’s speed and capacity. With 2 terabytes of space, it offers ample room for games, large files, and extensive software libraries.This SSD stands out with its impressive read and write speeds, enabling lightning-fast data transfers and rapid load times. Installation is straightforward, and it works seamlessly with most modern motherboards thanks to its PCIe 4.0 interface. Users will appreciate the smooth and responsive experience it delivers, from boot-up to file handling and multi-tasking.In addition to speed, the 990 EVO Plus boasts strong durability and efficient thermal management, reducing the risk of overheating during intense use. Samsung’s reputation for quality and reliability gives added confidence to those investing in this storage solution.Overall, the Samsung 990 EVO Plus 2TB combines excellent performance, generous capacity, and robust build quality into a sleek package. It’s a top choice for anyone looking to boost their system’s responsiveness and storage capabilities without compromise.
This 2 TB (actually only 1.8 Tb without overprovisioning about 1.6Tb with the recommended overprovisioning) is top shelf in SSD. You really cannot beat it and its read and write speed is currently the best you can get. If you also count in the 5 year warranty you cannot go wrong. Team this with Samsung Magician 8 software and you are set (for 5 years anyway).A nice piece of hardware for your PC or laptop.
Excellent performance even though it’s DRAMLESS SSD. Even if the longevity is lower than the pro version, it’s still worth getting if you are on a budget
Produto original. Fiquei na dúvida por causa dos lacres chineses, mas o circuito controlador é da Samsung. Após instalação testei com o aplicativo Samsung Magician, comprovando a autenticidade, e finalmente em teste de carga alcançou velocidades próximas da máxima. Recomendo o vendedor!
