Samsung 990 Pro SSD review: A perfect PS5 SSD

Samsung is going all-in on speed with the 990 Pro, a new m.2 SSD that's perfect for the PS5. Pushing the boundaries of PCIe 4.0 speed.

Faster than the PS5 internal storage ; Reliable performance ; Easy to setup and use ; Much more affordable than last gen ; Available in 1, 2, or 4TB options

More expensive than the competition ; No PCIe Gen 5 support (for PCs)

If you have a need for speed, Samsung has the SSD you're looking for. It offers faster load times, faster gaming performance, and higher capacity than what's in the PS5, even if it's a bit more expensive than the competition.

Samsung 990 Pro review: a pro SSD champ to fill that next-gen gap

The Samsung 990 Pro all but maxes out what a PCIe 4.0 SSD is capable of

Samsung 990 Pro review

The Samsung 990 Pro is a replacement for the stalwart 980 Pro and delivers even greater performance than its predecessor

Top-notch performance ; Hardware encryption ; Heatsink an option

Not a bargain ; No 4TB option, yet ; TBW surpassed by other drives

A dramatic improvement over the 980 Pro. The 990 Pro is a drive that can genuinely match the best that Seagate, WD and Kingston have to offer. However, you pay for this privilege, and the largest drive size is only 2TB. Those looking for a better TBW...
