SAMSUNG 980 SSD 1TB PCle 3.0x4, NVMe M.2 2280, Internal Solid State Drive, Storage for PC, Laptops, Gaming and More, HMB Technology, Intelligent Turbowrite, Speeds of up-to 3,500MB/s, MZ-V8V1T0B/AM

This SSD fits my needs to store large files and has a very good read/write speed

So far so good. Heres speeds

Its too soon to really say how good this is, but Im going off past experiences here. Samsung SSDs have been nothing but reliable. I have used both SATA and nvme drives and have never had an issue with them.

Tried installing this SSD in 3 different computers. NO joy. The device is not recognized in any of them. Not in BIOS or in Disk Management or under Compter. Also, since the device cant be found in any of the 3 PCs, I obviously cant initialize it or format it. Am aware that there is a specific driver provided by Samsung for this SSD which I downloaded but cant install it because software cant find the SSD in any of the PCs. And YES all 3 PCs have PCIe Gen 3x4 M.2 functionality and am currently running another SSD (Kingston HyperX Predator 256GB) in a PCIe x 4 slot with no problems. Have even tried mounting the device on another PCIe adapter card. Still no joy! Decided to buy this SSD since the existing Kingston PCIe SSD is getting a little long in the tooth ... has been running almost 24/7/365 for the past 6 years and was concerned that it may soon die (have had instances lately where it has begun throttling down). The only option left is to pay have the device tested by a local Computer store (Memory Express, Calgary @ + $55.00). Will update when the test is done.

Loved this M.2 SSD. So easy to install. I checked he website and could see that the firmware was already the latest version (2022). No need to flash. Works perfectly as a Windows 11 OS drive. Could not have been easier to install. Beats the heck over SATA SSDs in terms of read/write speeds. Four months so far without a hitch.

Replaced an old 960Pro with this and speeds are through the roof. I liked it so much I ended up getting a second one for the other M.2 slot. Temps are much lower with this as it lacks SDRAM cache but performance is negligibly slower. If you have 16 GB of RAM you likely cant even tell the difference.

Easy-to-use. Working out well for me. Very fast, good price for this 500 g.

Prático, rápido e com boa capacidade!

Es un SSD NVME muy eficiente, la velocidad de carga es muy superior que un SSD sata. Su calentamiento es mínimo, es sorprendente el tamaño del SSD y lo compré con descuento. Es recomendable descargar el software de monitoreo del mismo para obtener el mejor uso posible.

Muito topppppppppppppp
