• True PCIe® 4.0 NVMe™ speed (up to 7,000 MB/s for seq. reads, 5,000MB/s for seq. writes)
• Superb for heavy computing, high resolution graphics and PC gaming
• Compatible with Playstation® 5 gaming console

Next-level SSD performance

Unleash the power of the PCIe® 4.0 NVMe™ SSD 980 PRO for next-level computing. The PCIe® 4.0 delivers 2× the data transfer rate of PCIe® 3.0 while staying backward compatible for total versatility. The added heatsink elevates speed, power efficiency, and thermal control to maximise gameplay.

FEATURES

• Maximum speed: With Samsung’s in-house controller for PCIe® 4.0 SSD, the 980 PRO Series is optimised for speed. It delivers read speeds up to 7,000 MB/s, 2× faster than PCIe® 3.0 SSDs and 12.7× faster than SATA SSDs. The 980 PRO series achieves max speeds on PCIe® 4.0 and may vary in other settings.
• Smart Thermal Control: Samsung’s nickel-coated controller reliably manages NAND chip heat levels. The 980 PRO's heat spreader label allows thermal control access. The 980 PRO Heatsink uses proven data centre SSD technology to dissipate heat, for continuous high-performance gaming on most consoles and PC systems.
• A winning combination: Gamers, techies, and designers benefit from thermal control, high-performance bandwidth, and sustained performance for heavy-duty applications. Games load fast for more play time, and less time waiting. Smart heat management reduces distracting noise and cooling fan works for uninterrupted, fully immersive gaming.
• Efficient M.2 SSD: The 980 PRO with Heatsink minimises space limits with a thin 8.6mm body, compatible with PlayStation®5 plus desktops & laptops meeting PCI-SIG® D8 specs. The 980 PRO's compact, easy to plug-in M.2 form factor maximises board design flexibility for building efficient, high-performance systems.
• Samsung Magician software: Unlock the full power of the 980 with Samsung Magician's in­tuitive yet advanced optimisation tools. Monitor drive health, optimise performance, protect valuable data, and receive important updates with Magician to ensure you're always getting the best performance out of your SSD.
• World’s No.1 Flash Memory: Experience superior performance and reliability that you can only get from the world’s number one brand for flash memory since 2003. All firmware and components, including Samsung’s world-renowned DRAM and NAND, are produced in-house, allowing end-to-end integration for quality you can trust.
