Built for gamers and power users

The Samsung 980 PRO 2TB M.2 2280 drive targets hardcore gamers and tech-savvy users who need high bandwidth for gaming, graphics and data analytics. Its PCI-Express 4.0 x4 interface delivers up to 7000 MBps sequential read and 5100 MBps sequential write speeds. A 16MB cache supports sustained throughput for heavy workloads.

Efficient thermal design and power draw

The compact M.2 2280 form factor fits tight spaces while the Elpsis controller harmonises flash components with the interface for efficient operation. Performance scales with system configuration and firmware, and the drive maintains backward compatibility with PCIe 3.0 platforms. Sequential write speeds after the Intelligent TurboWrite region reach 2000 MBps on this 2TB capacity.

Samsung Magician software enables monitoring

The bundled Samsung Magician utility provides firmware updates, health monitoring and performance benchmarking tailored to this drive. It lets owners verify the SSD runs at advertised speeds and apply optimisations without third-party tools. No additional hardware accessories are included in the package.

Questions about this item

How do I install the Samsung 980 PRO 2TB M.2 2280 drive, and what step is often missed?

Insert the M.2 2280 module into a PCIe 4.0 x4 slot at a slight angle, press down, and secure it with the motherboard screw. The step often missed is enabling the NVMe option in the BIOS so the drive appears as a boot device.

What maintenance or replacement will the 980 PRO 2TB need over its life?

No mechanical maintenance is required. The 16 MB cache and controller firmware handle wear levelling automatically. Replacement is only needed if the drive reaches its write endurance limit or a firmware update cannot resolve a detected error.

What limit appears first on the 980 PRO 2TB during sustained heavy writes?

After the Intelligent TurboWrite region fills, sequential write speed drops to 2,000 MB/s for the 2 TB model. Thermal throttling may also activate if the controller temperature exceeds its safe threshold.
