Very easy to install for a ps5 if you know how to take the cover off
Review: The Samsung 990 PRO Heatsink 2TB PCIe 4.0 SSD is a powerhouse, combining blazing-fast speeds with innovative thermal management. The addition of a heatsink not only complements the sleek design but also ensures optimal performance even during prolonged, intensive tasks.
This SSD takes advantage of PCIe 4.0 technology, delivering read and write speeds that redefine expectations. The 2TB capacity provides ample space for storage, making it a robust choice for both gamers and professionals handling large files.
The heatsink, designed with precision, effectively dissipates heat, maintaining the SSD’s performance under heavy workloads. Installation is straightforward, and the build quality is top-notch, reflecting Samsung’s commitment to reliability.
Whether you’re a gamer seeking quicker load times or a content creator dealing with resource-intensive projects, the Samsung 990 PRO Heatsink 2TB PCIe 4.0 SSD is a wise investment. It combines cutting-edge technology with a thoughtful design, setting a new standard for high-performance storage solutions.
Yes, it is fast. I got the 2Tb version which I have now installed Linux Mint onto it, as Windows 11 plays up so much you lose the benefit of having good hardware.
Well worth it if your system can handle it.
Highly recommended.
From the factory they come with OPALv2 enabled, but not eDrive. So you can use sedutil or the BIOS to encrypt them, but not Bitlocker. To enable Bitlocker support you need to use Samsung Magician. The issue is that you need to run it under Windows, and then re-install Windows because it won't recognize the drive as eDrive complaint until you do. Arguably more of a flaw in the way that Microsoft does things, but Crucial seem to be able to make both eDrive and OPALv2 available from the factory.
Samsung drives are not cheap, but I expect them to last and have had good results in the past.
Mine came with the updated (3B2QJXD7) firmware already applied. Manufacturing production date was end of May 2023. This was 2 months prior to the purchase date, so these are confirmed new stock not the older drives with bad firmware.
Installation was easy enough. The drive comes in a box a little wider than a phone, with a slip out plastic tray with the drive held in that. No m.2 screw or mini screwdriver is included. Make sure you've got the one that came with your motherboard, or order another. You'll also need a micro screwdriver for the screw as they're very small. Depending on your motherboard and GPU setup, you may also need to move the GPU to access the m.2 slot to install. Some motherboards (thankfully) are now starting to use clips for the drive rather than screw stand offs.
After installation, the BIOS picked up the drive on power on. If you're doing a clean install of Windows, you can continue as normal. Otherwise, Samsung do offer two tools to help move your existing Windows install to the new drive. These are Samsung Data Migration and Samsung Magician.
As the name suggests Data Migration will allow you to clone your existing drive to the new one so you can boot from it. It works really well, but may take some time if you're moving directly from a Harddisk to NVMe M.2.
The Samsung Magician gives you some additional information about the drive and allows you to resize some dead (unused) space on the drive to help prolong the life span of the drive. It's only really needed if you're writing a large amount of data constantly to the drive with it near full. But it's a nice feature never the less.
I've got two of these drives and they're on a 10Gig network and are heavily hit and not had any issues with heat, so you probably don't need a heat sink. The price of the drive with an heat sink is a little excessive if you do want one. Check other listings on amazon for aftermarket heatsinks that clip on in the same way... but again depending on your motherboard it may already include a heatsink for the m.2 slot.
Overall, a really nice purchase if you want very fast read/write speeds with a large amount of space.

la tasa de transferencia de copiado se mantiene alta en archivos de grandes por mas tiempo en comparación del modelo anterior, aunque yo se que un PCI e5 es mas rápido, la verdad es que en cuestión de costo-beneficio no te vas a arrepentir.
La cajita llegó un poco maltratada porque solo le pusieron una bolsa de plástico al enviarla, por eso 4 estrellas.
El producto en si es fenomenal. Lo recomiendo y lo volvería a a comprar.

While the heatsink is a welcome addition, it might be a bit overkill for everyday users and could potentially lead to compatibility issues with some PC builds. Additionally, the price point is on the higher side, but the combination of top-tier performance and the added heatsink justifies the investment for those seeking a premium storage solution.
Overall, the Samsung 990 PRO 1TB with Heatsink is a powerhouse for those who demand speed and appreciate the thoughtful addition of a cooling solution.
