Next-level PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD

The Samsung 980 PRO 1TB M.2 2280 drive targets hardcore gamers and tech-savvy users who need maximum bandwidth for gaming, graphics and data analytics. It uses Samsung V-NAND 3-bit MLC with a Samsung controller and 1GB LPDDR4 cache. AES 256-bit encryption with TCG/Opal V2.0 and IEEE 1667 support protects data at rest.

Upgrade from PCIe 3.0 NVMe

Moving from a PCIe 3.0 NVMe drive brings sequential reads up to 7000 MBps and writes up to 5000 MBps, plus 4KB random performance of 1,000,000 IOPS at QD32. The jump is worth it when workloads saturate the older link or when sustained throughput matters for large asset streaming.

Sustained load thermal management

Nickel coating on the controller and a heat-spreader label on the NAND work with an embedded thermal control algorithm to manage heat during extended operation. Power draw reaches 6.2W read and 5.7W write while idle consumption stays at 35 mW. The drive is rated for 600 TBW and 1,500,000 hours MTBF.

Questions about this item

What physical slot and clearance does the M.2 2280 form factor require?

The drive fits a standard M.2 2280 slot measuring 22.15 mm wide by 80.15 mm long with a 2.38 mm height profile.

Which step is most often missed when installing the PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe drive?

Many builders forget to enable PCIe 4.0 mode in the motherboard BIOS, leaving the drive running at Gen 3 speeds.

When should the 1 TB drive be replaced based on its endurance rating?

The 600 TBW rating means the drive is warrantied for up to 600 terabytes of total data written before replacement is recommended.
