Excellent storage device, lightning fast
Purchased this SSD with the intention of swapping out the stock SSD from a Mini PC I picked up but couldn't use due to the encryption of the original SSD. Thus didn't pan out so I switched to using it as a external SSD for my Galaxy S23.

I love this drive!
Been using Samsung products ever since I swapped to m2s from SSDs. They are super fast and provide reliable performance.
I concurrently own the 970 EVO Plus, 980 Pro and now the 980 all at 1 TB storage capacities. Each of them have been very fast, significantly faster than any standard SATA SSD's and the 980 is no exception.
I'm very happy with the performance but agree with the argument that NVMe PCI Express Gen 4 drives would likely not really make a huge difference over fast PCIe Gen3 SSD drives. Also the drives obviously cost more.
I'm currently using a the 980 pro for the operating system and the 1tb 980 for storing games and load times are blazing fast.This is a very high quality product and you won't be disappointed in the performance.

Not a techie, but can notice the difference
This was installed on the family computer and while the previous drive was a typical "SATA SSD" I never noticed how slow it was. After learning about different storage types, I now realize why NVMe is so much faster. And it is noticeable! The load times for the initial startup is almost instant now. I don't even see the windows loading screen. Pictures are clicked and opened almost immediately. I didn't know that a storage device could make such a difference, but my family has informed me that my PC is more than capable and switching to this drive was the breath of life it needed to be brought back into the 21st Century. Overall super happy with the drive.

Best storage for your buck!
I was so happy to be selected to review this hard drive for my own personal home editing/gaming PC.
The installation requires a small knowledge of PC hardware or at least referencing your motherboard or laptop manual to locate M.2 slots on your computer. Please note that this hard drive does not come with the screws or standoffs to install to a motherboard. I bought a M.2 hardware kit for a few dollars on Amazon and was all set.
Once installation was complete I formatted my new 1 TB NVME drive to my system and immediately started moving my large RAW photo files over to it and was transferred about 48 Gigs of pictures in about 90 seconds which was simply amazing!!! Editing directly off the drive in Lightroom was noticeably better also!
I highly recommend this drive for anyone who has the spare the M.2 slots and wants super fast game load times faster files transfers, or anything you need super fast sotrage for. This will do the job!

As an IT integrator, Samsung is our choice for reliable SSD drives. NVMe drives will wake up performance for any desktop or laptop. The decision to use this drive renewed the love for a 3 year old laptop that was otherwise heading for recycle. ...and to say it's also encrypted granted us IT praise from those who write the checks...

Fast & Reliable
I've had my 1TB 980 installed as my system/boot drive for 11 months, and it has given me rock-solid reliability and a serious boost in boot speed over the Seagate spinner it replaced.
I'm getting ready to build a new PC, and I will definitely move the 980 to that new system. I'll be looking for motherboards with two (or more) M.2 slots so I can add another, larger Samsung NVME SSD for faster access when I'm editing video, or streaming media files using PLEX or Jellyfin.

Durability and reliability you can't find anywhere
I've been buying Samsung SSD since 2008 or so. I love their products, The drives with the least failures.. Recently I need to replace some of my NVME and Sata SSD. I need large capacity and Samsung didn't have 4TB. So I tried 2 other companies in 6 months, both of the other drives failed with 90 days. I went back to the Samsung 980 pro w/ heatsink and it works like a champ and it's faster then both other drives.

what you expect when you buy a product is that it performs as advertised and if anything goes wrong the manufacturer will stand behind their product.
my 980 ssd failed, suddenly and without any warning 3 weeks ago and i still do not have a working ssd.
i did not get what i expected when i bought this product. based on my experience with the 980 ssd i would say overall, it is a bad product.

Turns out, looking for a 1TB SSD that this one really hit the mark for me due to great performance for a good price. Also glad that I placed it in an external Sabrent enclosure (adding portability for multiple computers). Love it!

Check your motherboard first
Dell’s shipping method was fantastic, fast and reliable.
If you are planning to use it with PCI-E adapter card like me, Check your motherboard spec to see if it supports NVME first. My old PC doesn’t but I confirmed it works flawlessly with a newer PC.
There appears to be workaround with UEFI boot even if no support with motherboard, I haven’t tried it yet.

I looked through a bunch of options on amazon. This drive came out to be the greatest value and have the best set of features for it's price range. All the other drives seem untrustworthy, I hope samsung has my back when it comes to storage. These devices are darn fast too, they never hiccupped on me or had any issues doing anything.

Great speeds, but not usable with Magician
i am receiving a similar error to a previous reviewer's post about the samsung magician software not recognizing the drive/driver. it says that i am using an intel driver and that it only supports microsoft or samsung nvme drivers. when going into device management my system shows that i have the most recent microsoft driver installed. the listed nvme driver download on samsung's website is not compatible with my 980 and does not allow me to download it because of this reason. samsung's response to the previous reviewer's similar issue does not help or remedy the problem. i have made sure that i have the latest version of magician and still receive this issue. i am unsure why samsung has released this ssd without a compatible driver?

Fast as Lightning
Wasn't sure what to think of the Samsung 980 PRO, but it is fast! Easy to install and lightning fast. It has absolutely SPEED and quality that one comes to expect from Samsung. I watch my spouse spend most of my day in Adobe Programs such as Photoshop and Illustrator. She used to get frustrated at how slow the programs were, but with this all I hear is her raving about how fast everything is! I do think this gets hotter than I'd like - even with the heat spreader label to deliver effective thermal control. I feel better that they are looking at addressing that, but it misses the mark. Otherwise don't look at anything else - just trust this product to greatly increase your expectations.

Super Fast Drive
The Samsung SSD 980 is a very fast and reliable drive. I currently use a 2.5 inch wide Samsung SSD from a few years ago and the difference in speed and responsiveness is absolutely noticed. I cloned over my main OS and have it running on this drive and opening programs is as fast as a blink of an eye. Windows loads in 13 seconds on cold boot up which is amazing considering my old SSD was around 40 seconds. Loading Photoshop is about 2 seconds. As I work with large photos of videos, I no longer have lag scrubbing though the files. What I really like about Samsung is that they control the entire supply chain when building their SSD drives including their controllers which I feel helps optimize the entire SSD and also aids in Samsung's great reliability record. 3500mb/s are speeds that only a few years ago where not mass market. The Samsung SSD is air cooled and has a special nickel coating to help keep things cool as the shear speed of drive is keeping performance at top priority without worry of overheating. I feel absolutely amazed at all the time in engineering Samsung has put into making this drive perform the way is does. This kind of performance really helps especially in video editing and opening large file sizes with ease. I can finally scrub through 4k video on my computer smoothly. Great job Samsung.

Speedy fast SSD!! Quality is worth the price!
I am very impressed with this little SSD. I have used other NVMe SSDs and did not have a good experience with their speed benefits until I came across this one. I thought I would give a Samsung M.2 NVMe SSD a shot and I am very glad I went with this 1TB model. It is able to quickly boot my computer, transfer large video and photo files from my scuba diving trip to Cozumel (GoPro), and works perfectly for my video games. All in all, if you are looking for an all-in-one solution, I recommend this NVMe drive. Don't make the mistake of going with a slightly cheaper model - the logic controller on this drive is worth the money.

So i reall think The Samsung 980 is a far cry from the 980 Pro. Though that’s to be expected, since it’s a PCIe 3.0 model, it doesn’t do as great a job leading the pack as past Samsung SSDs have done. It’s a strong drive, but just edged out by the competition at pretty much every angle

I've owned it for about a year now, no complaints at all. It's just as fast as it was when I first got it, the Samsung Magician software works well for firmware updates and checking it's health, and it's never lost any data or cut out or anything like that. I'm confident that it'll last the rest of my laptop's life, and I'll likely buy a 980 series SSD when I build a new gaming PC in a year or two.
