Samsung 990 PRO – Flagship Gen 4 SSD for Gaming PCs

About the Samsung 990 PRO NVMe SSD

The 990 PRO is a flagship Gen 4 SSD built for PC enthusiasts and content creators who demand maximum performance. This drive delivers speeds that transform how your system responds, whether you're loading massive game worlds or editing 4K video footage. Samsung's proven reliability and 5-year warranty make it the trusted choice for serious builders.

What This 990 PRO Does for You

Game loading times drop to seconds instead of minutes with sequential speeds reaching 7,450 MB/s. Your Gaming PC boots instantly and applications launch without delay. Content creators benefit from rapid project file transfers and smooth timeline scrubbing in editing software. The high random IOPS performance keeps your system responsive even when running multiple demanding applications simultaneously. PCIe 4.0 technology ensures you're getting near-maximum bandwidth from modern motherboards and PS5 consoles.

Performance That Stands Out

Samsung's in-house controller and V-NAND technology deliver consistent speeds under heavy workloads. The 1.2 million random read IOPS mean your system stays snappy during everyday tasks like launching Chrome or loading game assets. You get 1GB LPDDR4 cache for smooth sustained writes without performance drops. AES 256-bit encryption protects your data without sacrificing speed. This isn't budget hardware pretending to be premium—it's genuine flagship performance.

Frequently Asked Questions About Samsung 990 PRO

What makes the Samsung 990 PRO faster than budget Gen 4 SSDs?

The 990 PRO uses Samsung's in-house controller and V-NAND technology for sustained speeds under load. Budget drives often slow down during heavy writes, but this maintains 7,450/6,900 MB/s consistently. You also get 1.2M random read IOPS for better real-world responsiveness.

Can I use this 990 PRO for PS5 storage expansion?

Yes, the 990 PRO meets Sony's performance requirements for PS5 storage expansion. Its 7,450 MB/s read speed exceeds the 5,500 MB/s minimum needed. Install it with a compatible heatsink for optimal thermal performance during gaming sessions.

Is this compatible with my motherboard's M.2 slot?

The 990 PRO works with any motherboard supporting M.2 2280 form factor and PCIe 3.0 or 4.0. You get maximum speeds on PCIe 4.0 motherboards. It's backward compatible with PCIe 3.0 but runs at lower speeds.

What does the 5-year Samsung Singapore warranty cover?

The warranty covers manufacturing defects and component failures for 5 years from purchase date. Singapore warranty means you handle claims locally through Samsung Singapore service centers. Mansa Computers assists with the warranty process if needed.

Should I buy the Samsung 990 PRO or a cheaper Gen 4 SSD?

The 990 PRO costs more but delivers proven Samsung reliability and 5-year warranty versus typical 3-year coverage. If you're building a high-end Gaming PC or storing critical work files, the extra cost buys peace of mind and sustained performance.
