Samsung 990 EVO Plus 1TB MZ-V9S1T0BW
PCIe NVMe solid state drive with M.2 2280 form factor
The Samsung 990 EVO Plus 1TB, part number MZ-V9S1T0BW, is an internal M.2 2280 NVMe solid state drive for desktops, workstations, and compatible notebooks. It uses a PCIe 5.0 x2 interface and also supports PCIe 4.0 x4 systems, providing broad platform compatibility. The drive delivers sequential read speeds up to 7,150 MB/s and sequential write speeds up to 6,300 MB/s when installed in a suitable PCIe configuration. Its 1TB capacity is intended for operating systems, applications, games, and general data storage. The SSD uses NVMe 2.0, NAND flash memory, and host memory buffer technology. A five-year limited warranty applies, subject to Samsung's total bytes written limit.

Which systems support the Samsung MZ-V9S1T0BW?
It requires an M.2 2280 slot with PCIe NVMe support. It operates in PCIe 5.0 x2 systems and is backward compatible with PCIe 4.0 x4 platforms.
Can this SSD be installed in a PCIe 4.0 computer?
Yes. The drive supports PCIe 4.0 x4 operation and will negotiate the highest speed supported by the system, slot, and firmware.
Does the drive require a special driver?
Modern Windows and Linux systems generally provide the required NVMe support. Samsung Magician can be used for firmware updates, drive monitoring, and management functions.
Is the Samsung 990 EVO Plus suitable for a notebook?
It can be used in a notebook with an accessible M.2 2280 PCIe NVMe slot and adequate thermal clearance. Confirm the notebook's storage compatibility before installation.
Does the SSD include a heatsink?
The MZ-V9S1T0BW is supplied as an M.2 SSD without an integrated desktop heatsink. Use the motherboard or system manufacturer's M.2 thermal solution when available.
How does it differ from the Samsung 990 PRO?
The 990 EVO Plus uses PCIe 5.0 x2 or PCIe 4.0 x4 connectivity, while the 990 PRO uses PCIe 4.0 x4. Platform capability and workload requirements should determine the selection.
