Samsung 970 EVO 1TB NVMe SSD

The Samsung 970 EVO MZ-V7E1T0E is a 1TB internal solid-state drive built for consumer PCs. It uses the M.2 2280 form factor and connects through a PCIe Gen 3.0 x4 interface with NVMe 1.3 protocol. The drive combines V-NAND 3-bit MLC memory with a Samsung Phoenix controller and 1GB of Low Power DDR4 SDRAM cache.

Sustained write behaviour with TurboWrite

Samsung TurboWrite technology accelerates write speeds beyond standard NVMe performance by using an intelligent buffer. The drive delivers sequential reads up to 3400 MBps and sequential writes up to 2500 MBps. Random read reaches 500,000 IOPS at QD32 and 15,000 IOPS at QD1, while random write hits 450,000 IOPS at QD32 and 50,000 IOPS at QD1. Dynamic Thermal Guard monitors temperature to protect data integrity during heavy workloads.

Compatibility checks before ordering

Verify that your motherboard has an M.2 slot keyed for PCIe NVMe and supports the 2280 length. Confirm the system can provide up to 10W of power during burst operation and that airflow keeps the drive within the 0°C to 70°C operating range. Samsung Magician software is available for drive management, monitoring and maintenance.

Questions about this item

How hot does the 970 EVO get when it runs all day at its 10 W burst power?

The controller is rated for 0 °C to 70 °C operating temperature and Dynamic Thermal Guard throttles the drive to stay within that range.

What slot and protocol must my motherboard provide for this M.2 2280 drive?

You need an M.2 2280 key-M slot wired for PCIe 3.0 x4 and NVMe 1.3 support.

Will this NVMe SSD work in a system that only has older AHCI M.2 slots?

No, the drive requires an NVMe 1.3 controller; AHCI-only M.2 slots cannot communicate with it.
