Overview

SSD 980 PRO: High Performance PCIe 4.0 SSD

The Samsung 980 PRO 250GB SSD can transform the performance and responsiveness of your machine. With stratospheric speeds and high endurance, the Samsung 980 PRO in M.2 2280 format is based on the PCI-E 4.0 x4 interface and NVMe 1.3c technology. It is also equipped with Samsung V-NAND 3-bit MLC memory, a Samsung Elpis controller and 512 MB of LPDDR4 cache memory.

The Samsung 980 PRO M.2 PCIe 4.0 4x NVMe 1.3c is designed primarily for hardcore gamers and demanding techies, the 980 PRO offers both bandwidth and high performance throughput for heavy gaming, computer graphics, data analysis and more. Games load ultra-fast so you can play more, and wait less.

Access to unprecedented performance

Take your equipment to the next level with the power of the Samsung 980 PRO NVMe PCIe 4.0 SSD. The 980 PRO makes the most of the PCIe 4.0 interface by doubling the data transfer rate of PCIe 3.0, while remaining backwards compatible with PCIe 3.0.

The 980 PRO has been optimised for speed with its Samsung Elpis controller, which is specifically designed for PCIe 4.0. This means you can achieve read speeds of up to 7000MB/s (depending on the model)

Precise thermal control

SSDs that deliver very high performance require extremely precise thermal control. To ensure the most stable performance, the 980 PRO features a nickel-protected controller to keep it at a stable temperature, and a heatsink to protect the NAND chip from temperature fluctuations.

Samsung has equipped the 980 PRO with a state-of-the-art algorithm so that the SSD itself can manage its temperature peaks and therefore ensure stable performance. To minimise long-term speed variations, Samsung Dynamic Thermal Guard technology keeps the temperature of the 980 PRO at an optimal level.

Samsung Magician

Access the true power of the 980 PRO with Samsung Magician software and its intuitive tools: monitor the status of the drive, optimise its performance, protect your important data, and receive all the updates to ensure you always get the best possible performance from your SSD.

    It's quick! Forget everything you already know

    I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to use this drive for my office, but I'm sure I'll be able to use it for my home office, so I'll be able to use it for my home office.
    I've only got a 3x PCI E slot so I'm saturating my bus with speeds of around 3453mo/s read and 2621mo/s write... and yes I don't have the max speed but who cares!
    I really recommend this purchase to anyone who wants to see the face of their machine change.

    Crazy perf!

    Installed in an ASUS ROG CROSSHAIR VIII IMPACT motherboard, I opted for this SSD to install my system on. Replacing an Intel SATA3 SSD, a big difference in performance is felt.
    The performance is very good, I am very satisfied with my purchase and with this product that I recommend.
