Samsung 990 PRO 2TB MZ-V9P2T0BW
High-performance PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD for desktops and workstations
The Samsung 990 PRO MZ-V9P2T0BW is a 2TB internal NVMe solid state drive for systems with an M.2 2280 PCIe 4.0 x4 slot. It uses Samsung V-NAND flash, a dedicated controller, and LPDDR4 DRAM to deliver sequential read speeds up to 7,450 MB/s and sequential write speeds up to 6,900 MB/s. The drive supports NVMe 2.0 and is supplied without an integrated heatsink, allowing installation in desktops, workstations, and compatible notebooks. Its 1,200 TBW endurance rating and five-year limited warranty suit demanding client storage workloads. System firmware, BIOS support, and available thermal management should be checked before installation.

2TB M.2 2280 NVMe SSD using a PCIe 4.0 x4 interface.
Sequential performance reaches 7,450 MB/s read and 6,900 MB/s write.
The drive has a 1,200 TBW endurance rating and five-year limited warranty.
Which systems are compatible with the Samsung 990 PRO MZ-V9P2T0BW?
It is compatible with desktops, workstations, and notebooks that provide an M.2 2280 slot supporting PCIe 4.0 x4 NVMe storage. It can operate in many PCIe 3.0 systems at the lower interface speed.
Does this SSD include a heatsink?
No. The MZ-V9P2T0BW is the standard drive version without an integrated heatsink. Use the motherboard or system M.2 heatsink when available, particularly in sustained workloads.
What performance does the Samsung 990 PRO 2TB provide?
Rated peak performance is up to 7,450 MB/s sequential read and 6,900 MB/s sequential write. Random performance is rated up to 1,400K IOPS read and 1,550K IOPS write.
Is the Samsung 990 PRO suitable for a PCIe 3.0 system?
Yes, provided the system supports an M.2 PCIe NVMe SSD. Performance is limited by the PCIe 3.0 interface, and the system must support booting from NVMe storage if the drive will be used as a boot device.
Which software and firmware support are available?
Samsung Magician supports drive monitoring, firmware updates, diagnostics, and performance management. Install the current Samsung Magician release and verify system firmware compatibility before deployment.
