Maximum PCIe 4.0 interface performance
The Samsung 990 PRO is designed to push the capabilities of the PCIe 4.0 interface to its limits. The combination of high transfer speeds, a proprietary Samsung controller and efficient thermal management delivers fast response times when working, gaming or moving large files. Performance remains stable even under more demanding loads that require simultaneous high read and write speeds.
Speeds of up to 7450 MB/s
Sequential read speeds reach up to 7450MB/s and write speeds up to 6900MB/s, bringing the 990 PRO close to the maximum potential of the PCIe 4.0 interface itself. At the same time, high random performance accelerates work with numerous smaller files. The result is shorter loading times when running games, working with video, 3D graphics, data projects and other demanding applications.
Higher performance with more efficient power consumption
High speed doesn't have to mean unnecessarily high power consumption. The Samsung 990 PRO's design delivers up to 50% more performance-per-watt efficiency than the previous generation, so it can take full advantage of PCIe 4.0 with more efficient power management. The lower power demands also help to limit the amount of heat generated during intensive use.
Intelligent operating temperature control
Sophisticated thermal management ensures stable performance under heavy load. The nickel-coated Samsung controller, along with the heat spreader, helps dissipate the generated heat, and the Dynamic Thermal Guard technology continuously monitors the SSD's operating temperature. If necessary, it optimises performance to keep the drive within a safe temperature range for stable, long-term operation.
Ready for demanding gaming
The Samsung 990 PRO offers high random performance, which is particularly noticeable when loading large amounts of game data. Compared to the previous generation 980 PRO, it delivers a significant increase in random performance and helps to reduce waiting times when loading game worlds and other data. It also supports Microsoft DirectStorage technology, which enables compatible PC games to make more efficient use of the high speed of an NVMe SSD and accelerate data transfer to the system.
Samsung Magician for easy SSD management
The Samsung Magician software lets you keep your drive's status under control in one place. It offers SSD health monitoring, performance measurement, optimisation tools and firmware update management. This not only helps you check the current status of your Samsung 990 PRO, but also keeps its settings and firmware up to date for reliable and efficient operation.
Samsung technology from memory to firmware
The Samsung 990 PRO uses the brand's own components and technologies, including V-NAND memory, DRAM, controller and firmware. Their mutual synergy optimises the performance, reliability and management of the SSD as a single unit. The drive thus benefits from Samsung's many years of experience in the development of semiconductor memory and storage.
