Review on 🚀 1TB Samsung 980 PRO PCIe NVMe Gen4 Internal M.2 Gaming SSD (MZ-V8P1T0B) by Wilbert Luoma

Well, all this hype about Samsung looks extremely unfounded. I put a heatsink on it and ran the PS5 twice to test the speed. 5560 ish for the first time. The second time is 5360. Cheaper drives work well in the 6000-7000 Mbps range. Samsung has a notoriously good guarantee, and initial tests show that the difference in speed doesn't equate to faster load times while in this range, but that's a joke. Buy another drive. Pretty disappointed. Update on this:. I contacted Samsung about this. They actually tell you to get another drive. So you heard it. This was her literal answer. "Unfortunately, Samsung does not currently offer support for the PlayStation 5. Samsung is not currently promoting the 980 PRO SSDs to work with the PlayStation 5. Samsung's claimed speeds can only be achieved in the correct recommended environments. If you would like to tweak your settings for faster storage speeds, please contact Sony for official compatible drive recommendations and expected performance ratings for PS5 and third-party SSDs."
