SAMSUNG 990 1TB SSD M.2 2280 PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe Internal

Samsung 990 1TB SSD — high-speed internal drive

For users who need maximum performance when working with data-intensive applications, the Samsung 990 1TB SSD is the ideal choice. This internal SSD in a compact M.2 2280 format offers sequential read speeds of up to 7,150 MB/s and write speeds of up to 6,450 MB/s, which is crucial for fast file transfers, loading games or working with large projects. Thanks to NVMe 2.0 technology and the PCIe 4.0 x4 interface, the drive achieves top performance with low latency. Reliability and data security are complemented by support for encryption standards, including 256-bit AES.

Performance and efficiency

The Samsung 990 uses Samsung V-NAND technology and its own controller, which ensures not only high speeds but also long-term reliability. Random speeds of up to 700,000 IOPS for reading and 1,100,000 IOPS for writing allow for smooth work with a large number of small files, which will be appreciated by users when multitasking or processing databases. HMB (Host Memory Buffer) technology eliminates the need for dedicated buffer memory and effectively uses system memory, which reduces power consumption and extends battery life in laptops.

Reliability and data protection

For long-term reliability, the drive is designed with MTBF 1.5 million hours and shock resistance up to 1,500G for 0.5 ms in three axes. The power supply operates at 3.3V ± 5%, while the consumption during reading reaches only 4W and 3.7W when writing. In sleep mode, the consumption is minimal, only 3mW, which is ideal for devices running in power saving mode. Additionally, the drive supports advanced encryption standards such as TCG/Opal V2.0 and IEEE 1667 for maximum data security.

Management and Operating Conditions

Samsung Magician, a dedicated drive management software, allows you to monitor performance, update firmware, and optimize your SSD. TRIM, S.M.A.R.T., and automatic Garbage Collection maintain high performance and ensure data integrity. The drive is designed for an operating temperature range of 0 to +70°C, making it a durable solution even in harsh operating conditions.
