Samsung now has an even faster SSD: the 990 Pro.<\/p>\n<p>The Samsung 990 Pro (this isn\u2019t an Evo-branded drive) is specifically built for 3D rendering, 4K video editing, data analysis, \u201cgraphically demanding <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/game\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"7\" title=\"Game\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">game<\/a>s,\u201d and other tasks that require constant read and write disk access at high speeds. Samsung didn\u2019t specifically mention if it\u2019s compatible with the PlayStation 5 (which can accept third-party SSDs if they are fast enough), but the older Samsung 980 Pro worked with the PS5, so it\u2019s a safe bet.<\/p>\n<p>Samsung says the drive can deliver sequential read and write speeds (meaning data in the same area on a drive) of up to 7,450 MB\/s and 6,900 MB\/s, respectively. That\u2019s up to 55% faster than the 980 Pro, which was <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/news.samsung.com\/global\/samsung-delivers-next-level-ssd-performance-with-980-pro-for-gaming-and-high-end-pc-applications\">released in 2020<\/a>. The drive is also up to 50% more power efficient than the 980 Pro. Samsung will sell the drive with and without a heatsink \u2014 the latter option has RGB lights, because do you really have a gaming PC if you don\u2019t have RGB everywhere?<\/p>\n<p>The new drive once again places Samsung near (or at) the lead in NVMe SSDs, but there\u2019s still plenty of competition. <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/108763\/corsairs-ps5-ssd-is-faster-and-more-affordable-than-samsungs\/\">Corsair released its MP600 PRO LPX SSD earlier this year<\/a>, with promised sequential read speeds of up to 7,100 MB\/s. However, the drive\u00a0<em>exceeded<\/em> that in <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.techradar.com\/reviews\/corsair-mp600-pro-lpx-review#:~:text=In%20sequential%20read%20and%20write%2C%20the%20MP600%20Pro%20LPX%20lands%207%2C364MB\/s%20and%206%2C870MB\/s%2C%20respectively\">some real-world tests<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Pricing for the Samsung 990 Pro and 990 Pro with Heatsink will be $179 for the 1 TB model, and $309 for 2 TB, with both arriving in stores around October 2022.

However, if you know you\u2019ll benefit from faster speeds (like gaming at higher quality settings), the 990 Pro is promising.<\/p>\n<p><small>Source: <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/news.samsung.com\/us\/samsung-unveils-high-performance-990-pro-series-ssds-optimized-gaming-creative-applications\/\">Samsung<\/a><\/small><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script>\n setTimeout(function(){\n  !function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s)\n  {if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\n  n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};\n  if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';\n  n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\n  t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n  s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s) } (window, document,'script',\n  'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n   fbq('init', '335401813750447');\n   fbq('track', 'PageView');\n  },3000);\n<\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
