Samsung 990 EVO Plus PCIe 4.0 M.2 2280 Up to 4TB SSD

Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. announced the 990 EVO Plus M.2 2280 SSD, adding to its lineup of SSD products.

With PCIe 4.0 support and latest NAND technology, the 990 EVO Plus is a solution for consumers seeking enhanced performance and power efficiency on their PCs. Optimized for gaming, business and creative endeavors.

“Our daily lives are increasingly demanding more data with the images we share on social media and high-quality video streaming,” said Hangu Sohn, VP, memory brand product Biz team. “The 990 EVO Plus is built for laptop and desktop PC users seeking faster processing speeds and expanded storage capacity.”

Enhanced performance and power efficiency
The 990 EVO Plus is built on decades of the company’s semiconductor technology with proven reliability. Sequential read speeds come up to 7,250MB/s and write speeds up to 6,300MB/s, an enhancement of up to 50% over the previous 990 EVO. The performance boost is thanks to the firm’s latest 8th-gen V-NAND technology and 5nm controller, while a nickel-coated heat shield minimizes overheating, allowing 73% higher power efficiency than its predecessor.

The 4TB model has a random read speed of 1,050,000 IO/s and 1,400,000 IO/s for random write. This performance nearly rivals that of SSD products with DRAM, despite not using DRAM cache, making it an optimal solution for gaming and AI tasks that require high performance.

Expanded storage capacity
The ever-increasing demand for high-capacity storage devices is driven by managing large-sized files, high-quality video editing and next-gen gaming. To meet today’s growing storage requirements, the 990 EVO Plus offers ample capacity with a 4TB model, exceeding the storage limits of the 990 EVO. The 990 EVO Plus is equipped with the company’s intelligent TurboWrite 2.0, revamped for maximized performance, offering rapid file transfer speeds and reduced lag.

Samsung Magician software support
Samsung Magician software presents a suite of optimization tools for enhanced functionality for all the firm’s SSDs, including the 990 EVO Plus. Users can streamline the data migration process for SSD upgrades effortlessly and securely. In addition, Magician software protects valuable data, monitors drive health and offers customized performance optimization.

The 990 EVO Plus will be available to consumers WW at a manufacturer’s suggested retail price (MSRP) of $109.99 for the 1TB model, $184.99 for the 2TB model, and $344.99 for the 4TB model.
