Speed and reliability!
Here are some of my personal opinions about the Samsung 980 Pro SSD:
I love how fast it is. Getting the advertised sequential read speeds of up to 7,000 MB/s and sequential write speeds of up to 5,000 MB/s.
I'm confident that it's built to last. It's backed by a 5-year warranty and has a high endurance rating.
Overall, I'm very happy with the Samsung 980 Pro SSD, So much I filled all my NVME slots with them for work and games!

I bought this when I got my computer because I want the best memory available. Samsung is simply the best memory you can buy and I've never regretted my decision.

Snappyperformance all around, very happy
I put the Samsung 980 Pro 2TB drive in a tiny Intel NUC PC with the Intel i5 12400 processor. What a revelation - I expected speed, but the SSD let me do file functions instantly. Everything was extremely snappy including opening Canon CR3 RAW files in Photoshop and importing them into Lightroom CC. I'll soon build a tower Windows PC and will choose the Samsung 980 Pro again.

I bought this about a month ago and it has been working great for me, I used it on my ps5 to be able to store more games and I haven't encountered a single issue and I don't expect to because Samsung products don't ever let you down. I don't see a reason to get many years of great performance out of it.

Solid Performing 2TB PCIe NVMe SSD Laptop Drive
I purchased the 980 PRO PCIe NVMe SSD 2TB drive for my laptop March 2023 and was impressed with the performance so when the price was right in July I purchased a second one for my laptop. It is a solid performer with excellent consistent 3000+ MB/s read and write. Both drives came with the latest updated drivers and I highly recommend these drives.

Not functioning properly
Bought couple 980 Pro SSDs a while ago. The rest of them works all great reaching the 7000MB/s advertised read speed. However, one of them can’t be read or write after powered off for longer than a day. Power it off again and the second time power on it always works fine. But the next day, same issue. It’s completely useless used in a computer. After trying it on a different PC, check the firmware etc, it’s still a mystery. The support page is useless and I have no idea how to even start a claim for warranty.

easy install, easy migration to make this my primary drive, and plays nicely with the samsung magician 7 software.
purchased on black friday so saved a lot of dough on it.
you should buy one fast before the cost goes back up.

Great SSD, Priced Reasonable, Video Work & Games
Had a awesome sale going when bought these and upgraded both my SSD's. Use one as a primary program drive, then the second as a data and working edit file, also a gaming storage.
Highly recommend. The design is simple and clean, the performance is quick. Zero load times for Windows11 and a boost to my games, and video work flow.
Had several 2.5 SSD EVO's and PRO's before this so was familiar with Samsung's SSD performance, and highly recommend upgrading if you are looking to do so!

Garbage product.
First 980 PRO dies within a few months of use. Just died with no warnings. I bit the bullet and purchased another one. Second 980 Pro is now showing bad sectors, and fails to even perform the SMART short test using their own software. Tried to get Warranty service for now 2 bad SSDs and the website doesn't even allow it. I regret not going with WD drives.

Died after 11 months of light usage. Samsung magician is saying 24.7TB written is critical and the drive locked itself as read only. Warranty says it supports 1200TBW so it should get replaced without any pushback. But I have lost the use of my machine and I will have to reinstall everything when I get the replacement.

Could Not Possibly Be Happier
I bought this 2TB drive about a month ago to replace a 500MB SSD. I was somewhat apprehensive about transferring the old SSD info to the new Samsung 980 PRO - however- the software that Samsung provides is AMAZING and very easy to use. The entire process from start to finish did not take long, was not a complex process (because the Samsung application that made the process easy and fast) and I have had zero problems.

Great SSD cant wait for the 4TB 990
I needed a new drive for me computer that I am building based off the reviews and fourm posts I took the plunge and got this Drive. by all accounts this thing is an amazing little NVME drive. So much faster than my 870 evos saving me a bunch of time on my projects and other renders. Granted I did this in a test build that I had lying around as I dont have all the pieces for my new build yet (Mainly the GPU and the 4TB deciding on the Seagate/850X but I haven't made a decision yet. I think i'll just wait for the 990 4tb and finally make a choice.) But yea this little guy is going to save me SOOOO much time and when the 990 comes out it will pair nicer with its slower, but still awesome, older brother. But yea if you can get this on sale (like I did I saved like 100 bucks on it.) snag it! phenomenal piece of gear for anyone wanting to reduce load and wait times on your programs.

I bought my first 980 Pro last year and purchased a "Heat Sink" to reduce heat on the chip inside my PS 5. I have had "ZERO" issues and due to my satisfaction with my purchase, I just purchased another 980 Pro while they are on sale. Don't let the thought that you can't install this SSD. This memory solid state drive is a breeze to install and rewconize by Sony's PS 5 instantly. I hope to see a 4TB SSD from Samsung in the near future.

just bought a new high end laptop from top 5 company. put in 2 980 pro 2 tb and get message that it does not work with the latest intel drivers installed with windows 11 on the latest intel storage controller that all new computers are shipping with intel driver 18.6.4.1022. there also are no drivers for this drive to install on the samsung website/downloads. so bought the premium samsung ssd and its magician software lists that the drive is incompatible with the latest intel storage controller drivers. hard to believe for what samsung charges for these drives. i have read all samsung community support comments which say to install and uninstall current drivers and it does not work. save your money until samsung fixes this.

Amazing!
I do bioinformatics (RNA-seq, for instance), and the 980 pro REALLY speeds up the process. Something that takes 10 minutes on my QVO takes 1-2 minutes on my 980 pro (which is expected, given the differences in read/write speeds)
Definitely worth the price

Best SSD in class.
I recently bought a x1 yoga thinkpad laptop which came in with 256gb SSD. I am a database enthusiast. Within a month my machine is out of storage. I took sometime researching on what SSD to buy. After going through lot of reviews and performance benchmark comparisions, i have bought 2tb samsung 980 pro. My laptop already had heatsink plate, so opted for non heatsink version. I am happy with my purchase. Data read and write is far better than the SSD that came in with the laptop.
The only issue i faced is with the magician software which didn't work to clone my existing ssd. Tried around 10 times. I had to install OS on the new SSD losing old data.

Great NVME M.2 SSD: fast speed and stable
It has been a few months since I added it (2TB 980 Pro NVME M.2 SSD) to my Dell Inspiron 7425 (AMD 7 5825U). Its temperature never went over 50C, normally around 40C. Very stable and super fast for my productivity work. Super satisfied. Plan to buy one more to add it to another laptop.

Finally able to get to use it on my ps5!
finally after buying this for my ps5, i'm able to use it was expecting better read. you say its suppose to read at 7100 mbs but i'm only getting 5731 mbs. so hopefully the actually update from ps5 will unleash the speed then, back in february i spent over 450 dollars for it. i guess your suppose to put heat sink on, but i didn't. the fan on the ps5 haven't rampant up like most people expect it to do. i'm transferring over 9 games less then 900 gigs, which is taking sometime to do. but thats from going from a slow external 8 to harddrive, so hopefully this will solve my blue screen issues.

Speed and cool operation.
nice 2tb nvme drive. i bought the 980pro with preinstalled heat sink. my asus older z170 deluxe mb did deactivate two of the six sata drive ports when i placed this m.2 drive into the sole slot in this 5 1/2 year old asus board. the speed and capacity of this drive are excellent even in this board. once i partitioned the drive with the live gparted cd, the installation of archlinux was smooth and fast. since samsung has not ported magician to linux, i am relying on the o/s' ability to manage trim and i left the last 200gb unpartitioned in the event that overprovisioning becomes a future option in my o/s.

Samsung 980 Pro 2TB
I installed this SSD today without any issues. It was detected right away by Samsung magician, and after using Disk Management in Windows 11, I was able to create a simple partition and download many games to it with no problems so far. I am using this as a second SSD, I use a Samsung 980 Pro 1tb as my main operating system drive, but I needed more disk space for reasons. This drive used to be much more expensive in 2020, so I was happy enough to get it at the listed price. My Asrock x570 Taichi Razer edition motherboard supports 3 SSDs, and seems to work properly with 3 SSDs installed. There was a tiny little transparent orange plastic cover over the NVME standoff that none of the posts that I read before trying to install this drive mentioned. You just have to peel it off before trying to install the standoff.

Best SSD's Out There!
Purchased my 4th 980 Pro last month. I have 3 of the 2TB and one 1TB in my system. There are all flawless! I use the 1TB as my boot drive and the others as gaming or backup drives. The Samsung Magician software keep them all at the most current firmware for me. I don't have to worry about it at all. As I have slowly upgraded my previous drives with the 980 Pro's, I've noticed load speeds dramatically increase. The read/write speeds are easily double of comparable drives.

Very disappointed
Purchased for the PS5 through Amazon. 15 months later and the drive will not read, write, or format. Called Samsung for warranty and was sent an email to answer, replied back same day with all answers required and all documentation and have received zero response in almost 2 weeks. While the SSD was good when it was working, going dead and then getting zero response from Samsung, who is usually good about these things, is frustrating. If you don't have any issues then you should be golden, but if warranty is required, don't expect much from the SSD division.

Failed after 1 year
Worked great for a little over a year before failing. This 980 Pro saw very little use as it was mainly for games.
When I purchased this SSD the price was $350, and it only lasted this short amount of time! Submitting a warranty claim and hoping for a refund. This is ridiculous.

Great Performance, Good value
I bought it for my high end PC i9-12900K and GeForce 4080. It has been keeping up really good with ML and gaming workloads.

Very fast reliable Nvme drive
I bought this 2TB gen 4 drive since many newer games pretty much require or highly recommend an SSD for the best experience. This drive is really fast and responsive and sped up file transfer and installation times on my laptop. Dell’s sale price made this a very competitive deal well worth the upgrade. I love Samsung’s quality and reliability and love the performance. It is easy to install and works with newer as well as older systems with Nvme slots.

Great Drive
So far I have to say Samsun 980 Pro M.2 2TB drive is great, its fast, easy to install. I have tried other drives and have not been impressed, had another name brand die in about 2 months. Samsun will be my go to drive from now on. The price has come down over the last year making the 2TB drive very economical.
