Frequently Asked Questions
Tech Specs Is the Samsung 990 PRO 2TB compatible with PlayStation 5?
Yes. The Samsung 990 PRO 2TB easily exceeds Sony's minimum 5,500 MB/s requirement with its 7,450 MB/s read speed. For PS5 installation, using a standard M.2 heatsink or motherboard heat spreader is recommended to maintain optimal thermal headroom.
Tech Specs Can I use this drive on a PCIe 3.0 motherboard?
Yes, PCIe 4.0 is fully backward compatible with PCIe 3.0 slots. The drive will operate flawlessly, saturating the maximum PCIe 3.0 bandwidth ceiling at approximately 3,500 MB/s read and 3,300 MB/s write.
Tech Specs What are the advantages of the 2GB LPDDR4 DRAM cache?
Dedicated DRAM cache maintains a high-speed mapping table of your data. Unlike DRAM-less SSDs that slow down during heavy write operations, the 2GB LPDDR4 cache maintains consistent 6,900 MB/s write speeds even during massive multi-gigabyte transfers.
Tech Specs How does Samsung Dynamic Thermal Guard protect the SSD?
Dynamic Thermal Guard (DTG) continuously monitors controller temperatures and intelligently adjusts transfer rates only if temperatures reach safety thresholds, preventing thermal degradation and performance drop-offs.
Tech Specs How do I update firmware and clone my drive?
Download the free Samsung Magician software suite to install official firmware updates, run performance benchmarks, monitor drive health, and utilize Samsung Data Migration to clone your existing Windows installation in minutes.
