  • PositiveDecent performance
  • PositivePCIe 5.0 x2 or PCIe 4.0 x4
  • PositiveFive-year guarantee and good TBW rating
  • NegativePCIe 5.0 performance was inconsistent and slower than PCIe 4.0 performance
  • NegativeExpensive compared to the low-cost PCIe 4.0 competition

The 990 EVO from Samsung can be operated with the PCIe 5.0 standard, but is limited to two lanes (x2) and strictly speaking behaves like a PCIe 4.0 SSD. A somewhat expensive and not particularly fast PCIe 4.0 SSD at that.

  • PositiveLoad capacity of 1,200 TByte
  • Positive5 years manufacturer warranty
  • NegativeWrite speed decreases with full SLC cache
  • NegativeNo heat sink supplied
  • NegativeHigh access times

Our test shows that the Samsung 990 EVO 2TB is an M.2 SSD with acceptable speeds. However, the write performance drops sharply once the SLC cache has been filled. The access times could also be significantly faster. In return, Samsung offers a five-year warranty and a load capacity of 1,200 TByte for the 990 EVO...

  • NegativeThe Samsung 990 PRO, which is faster in borderline cases, is currently not much more expensive

If you are looking to buy a new SSD for your computer, notebook or even a current games console, the Samsung 990 EVO is a good choice. The five-year manufacturer's warranty provides additional peace of mind.

  • PositiveInteresting technology
  • Negativerather slow

Samsung's first PCIe 5.0 SSD is only a half SSD, in 4.0 slots it is just as fast as in 5.0 slots. As a typical Evo SSD, it is significantly slower than the Pro series, but also cheaper. It is strange that it is much faster in a test than Samsung claims: Samsung promises around 5 GByte/s for sequential reading, which we also achieved with one worker and a query depth of 32...
