Description
A smart choice for NVMe performance
Performance power for smooth gaming and large graphics: The SSD 980 offers your computer a lot of performance and speed thanks to PCIe 3.0 interface and NVMe technology. It enables sequential read and write speeds of up to 3,500 or 3,000 MB/s¹ and is thus up to 6 times faster than a Samsung SATA SSD.² you get plenty of power for graphics-intensive games or large files. The SSD 980 offers you a high potential of NVMe performance with low power consumption. For constant performance, you can also rely on a stable temperature level, which is regulated by a nickel coating, a heat spreader and the Dynamic Thermal Guard technology. This is made possible by specially developed technologies such as the modern controller, V-NAND flash memory as well as the latest firmware. Another performance tip: Samsung Magician software lets you get a lot out of your SSD 980 thanks to various functions, such as full power mode.

Hints
Performance may vary depending on SSD firmware version, system hardware, and configuration. Sequential performance was measured using TurboWrite technology and IOmeter 1.1.0. Sequential write speeds outside the Intelligent TurboWrite range: Up to 250MB/s (GB), up to 500MB/s (GB), up to 900MB/s (1TB). Test System Configuration: Intel® Core™ i7-6700K CPU@ 4.00 GHz, DDR4 2133 MHz 8 GB x 2, OS-Windows 10 Pro 64 Bit, ASRock Z-170 Extreme 7+.
² Performance comparisons refer to Samsung SATA SSDs.
³ TBW = Terabytes Written. Total insured data: 150 TBW for the 250 GB model, 300 TBW for the 500 GB model and 600 TBW for the 1 TB model.
