Built for high-end computing

The Samsung 980 PRO MZ-V8P2T0B/AM is a 2TB internal SSD using the M.2 2280 form factor. It targets consumer workloads such as gaming, graphics work and data analytics. The drive combines Samsung V-NAND with an Elpsis controller and a 2GB Low Power DDR4 cache. AES 256-bit encryption with TCG/Opal V2.0 and IEEE1667 support is included.

Capacity and sustained performance

Two terabytes provide ample space for large game libraries, project files and operating systems. Sequential reads reach up to 7000 MBps and writes up to 5100 MBps, so heavy transfers finish quickly. The 1500000-hour MTBF and 1500 G shock rating indicate durability for daily use. Active power averages 6.1W with a 7.2W burst ceiling, while idle draw sits at 35 mW.

PCIe 4.0 x4 interface limits

The NVMe 1.3c drive runs on a PCIe Gen 4.0 x4 link, delivering twice the bandwidth of a PCIe 3.0 connection. It remains backward compatible with PCIe 3.0 slots at reduced speed. The x4 lane width and NVMe 1.3 protocol define the maximum throughput ceiling for this SSD.

Questions about this item

Will this drive fit a laptop that only has a PCIe 3.0 M.2 slot?

Yes. The drive uses a PCIe 4.0 x4 interface and is backward compatible with PCIe 3.0 slots, though sequential speeds will be limited to the slot's maximum.

Does the 2 TB model include hardware encryption for sensitive data?

Yes. It supports AES 256-bit full-disk encryption and is compliant with TCG Opal 2.0 and IEEE 1667 standards for drive locking.

How much power does the drive draw under heavy workloads?

Average active power is 6.1 W with a burst maximum of 7.2 W, while idle consumption is only 35 mW.
