Samsung 970 EVO 1TB NVMe Drive

The Samsung 970 EVO MZ-V7E1T0BW is a 1TB internal solid state drive built for consumer workloads. It uses a PCIe Gen 3.0 x4 interface with NVMe 1.3 protocol and a Samsung Phoenix controller. The drive suits tech enthusiasts, high end gamers, and 4K and 3D content designers who need low latency and power efficiency.

PCIe Gen 3.0 x4 Interface Limits

The PCIe Gen 3.0 x4 link caps maximum sequential read at 3400 MBps and sequential write at 2500 MBps. Random read reaches 500,000 IOPS at QD32 and 15,000 IOPS at QD1. Random write reaches 450,000 IOPS at QD32 and 50,000 IOPS at QD1. Active power averages 6W with a 10W burst maximum.

1TB Capacity and 600 TBW Endurance

The 1TB capacity uses 64L V-NAND MLC memory with a 1GB LPDDR4 DRAM cache. The drive is rated for 600 TBW and an MTBF of 1,500,000 hours. Dynamic Thermal Guard manages operating temperatures from 0°C to 70°C. AES 256-bit encryption and TCG Opal IEEE1667 protect data at rest.
