SAMSUNG 970EVO Plus 1TB M.2 2280 NVMe internal SSD

SKU CH-G55Y-08RD8 MPN 970EVO

M.2 2280 NVMe internal SSD with 1 TB capacity and sequential speeds of 3500 MB/s read and 2300 MB/s write

  • Faster boot and load times with 3500 MB/s sequential read speed
  • Quick file saves and transfers at 2300 MB/s sequential write speed
  • Fits laptops and desktops using the M.2 2280 form factor
  • Stores large game libraries and media in 1 TB capacity
  • Lightweight design at 0.018 kg adds minimal weight to portable systems

Ideal upgrade for PCIe 3.0 systems

This Samsung 970 EVO Plus delivers 1 TB of NVMe storage in the M.2 2280 form factor. Sequential reads reach 3500 MB/s and writes reach 2300 MB/s over a PCIe Gen 3.0 x4 link. The drive uses TLC three-tier unit flash and fits desktops or notebooks with a compatible M.2 slot.

Not for PCIe 4.0 or 5.0 platforms

Builders targeting the higher bandwidth of newer PCIe generations will not benefit from the Gen 3.0 x4 interface. Users who need capacities above 1 TB should consider larger drives. The single-sided 2.38 mm profile may not suit chassis that require double-sided modules.

Deciding specification: PCIe Gen 3.0 x4 NVMe 1.3

This interface and protocol combination determines whether the drive can be used at its rated 3500 MB/s read and 2300 MB/s write speeds. A motherboard M.2 slot wired for PCIe 3.0 x4 and NVMe 1.3 support is required to achieve the stated performance.

Questions about this item

What is the write speed that determines how quickly the drive wears during heavy use?

Sequential write speed is rated at 2300 MB/s, which indicates the data rate the TLC flash must sustain during intensive workloads.

Which limit appears first when the drive runs at its peak 3500 MB/s read speed for long periods?

Thermal throttling will engage before the controller hits its maximum throughput, protecting the components from overheating.

How much power does the drive draw when it operates continuously in a desktop or notebook?

The PCIe Gen 3.0 x4 interface and low 0.018 kg mass keep typical active power well within standard M.2 slot limits for all-day operation.
