Samsung SSD M.2 NVMe PCIe Gen4 2TB 990 EVO PLUS - Description
Upgrade your system's storage performance with the Samsung 990 EVO Plus 2TB PCIe Gen4/Gen5 NVMe M.2 SSD. Designed for gamers, content creators, and power users, this drive offers an impressive upgrade over standard NVMe drives, combining breakthrough data transfer speeds with class-leading power efficiency.
Unrivalled Speed and Responsiveness
Powered by Samsung's state-of-the-art 5nm controller and 8th-generation V-NAND technology, the 990 EVO Plus achieves blistering sequential read speeds of up to 7,250 MB/s and sequential write speeds of up to 6,300 MB/s—up to 45% faster than the previous generation 990 EVO. With random read and write speeds reaching up to 1,000,000 IOPS and 1,350,000 IOPS respectively, heavy workloads, game loading, and multi-stream media editing become virtually instantaneous.
Maximum Efficiency for Laptops and Desktops
Enjoy heavy computing without draining your laptop battery. The 990 EVO Plus features a massive 73% boost in power efficiency (MB/s per watt) compared to the standard 990 EVO. Its versatile interface supports both PCIe Gen4 x4 and PCIe Gen5 x2 configurations, ensuring peak bandwidth, broad motherboard compatibility, and seamless future-proofing.
Intelligent Heat Dissipation
Maintain consistent high performance without throttling. The SSD incorporates a nickel-coated controller alongside an advanced heat spreader label to dissipate heat efficiently across the drive. This compact, low-profile thermal solution eliminates the need for bulky heatsinks, making it ideal for thin laptops, ultrabooks, and compact desktop setups.
