Bestoss M.2 2280 NVMe SSD 4TB Internal PCIe Gen4 vs Samsung 990 EVO Plus 4TB

The Samsung 990 EVO Plus 4TB is the safer pick for most people. It has a longer 2,400 TBW endurance rating, TLC NAND, AES encryption, Samsung's Magician software and a large base of owner ratings that call it fast and reliable. The Bestoss GM988 4TB claims slightly higher peak read and write speeds and ships with graphene copper cooling, but it has half the endurance at 2,048 TBW, a 3-year warranty against Samsung's 5-year coverage, and far fewer owners reporting on it. Buy the Bestoss only if you want the highest quoted sequential numbers and PS5 compatibility at a lower outlay.

• Choose the Bestoss GM988 if you want the highest quoted sequential read speeds, PS5 compatibility and graphene copper cooling, and you accept a shorter warranty and lower endurance.
• Choose the Samsung 990 EVO Plus if you want proven reliability, TLC NAND, hardware encryption, Samsung Magician support and a 5-year warranty with 2,400 TBW.
