1 TB PCIe 5.0 x2 NVMe SSD

The Samsung 990 EVO Plus is a 1 TB internal solid state drive built for demanding workloads. It uses a PCIe 5.0 x2 interface with NVMe protocol to deliver high throughput for applications and large files. The M.2 2280 form factor fits standard desktop and laptop slots. V-NAND TLC technology supports endurance across everyday and intensive use.

Thermals noise and power

Active power consumption is rated at 50 watts during operation. The drive operates reliably from 0 °C to 70 °C and survives storage temperatures from -40 °C to 85 °C. No moving parts mean silent running in any system. TRIM support and an Auto Garbage Collection Algorithm help sustain consistent performance over time.

Sequential read up to 7150 MB/s

Maximum sequential read speed reaches 7150 megabytes per second while sequential write peaks at 6300 megabytes per second. These figures define whether the drive matches the throughput needs of your platform. Hardware encryption with TCG Opal 2.0 compliance adds data security without software overhead.

Questions about this item

How do I install the M.2 2280 SSD in a PCIe 5.0 slot, and what step is often missed?

Insert the M.2 2280 drive into the PCIe 5.0 x2 slot at a 30-degree angle, press down, and secure with the motherboard screw; the step often missed is enabling PCIe 5.0 x2 mode in BIOS so the drive runs at its 7150 MBps rating instead of falling back to a slower link.

What maintenance or replacement will the 1 TB V-NAND TLC drive need over its life?

The drive uses TRIM and an Auto Garbage Collection Algorithm to maintain performance automatically; no user maintenance is required, and the V-NAND TLC endurance is managed by the controller, so replacement is only needed if the drive reaches its write endurance limit or fails.

What limit appears first during sustained writes on the 990 EVO Plus?

Under sustained write loads the sequential write speed of 6300 MBps is the first ceiling you hit; the controller will throttle to stay within the 0°C to 70°C operating range before any other limit is reached.
