Our take on the Samsung 990 EVO Plus 4TB M.2 NVMe SSD

The Samsung 990 EVO Plus is a 4TB M.2 2280 NVMe drive that runs PCIe 4.0 x4 or PCIe 5.0 x2 and is rated up to 7,250 MB/s read and 6,300 MB/s write. It uses Samsung V-NAND TLC with an in-house controller and works with Samsung Magician for monitoring and firmware updates. It is a capacity-first drive: the 4TB model is the point, and it fits desktops and laptops with an M.2 2280 slot. Against premium Gen 4 drives like the 990 Pro it trades some random-write speed and endurance for capacity and efficiency; against budget QLC drives it keeps TLC and steadier sustained writes.

Pros
  • 4TB capacity on a single M.2 2280 stick
  • Up to 7,250 MB/s sequential read, 6,300 MB/s write
  • TLC NAND rather than QLC
  • Runs on PCIe 4.0 x4 or PCIe 5.0 x2 slots
  • Samsung Magician support for health and firmware
Cons
  • Not as fast as the 990 Pro in random and sustained heavy writes
  • No DRAM cache on the EVO line
  • Needs a heatsink in tight or hot builds for long transfers
  • PCIe 5.0 x2 gives no speed gain over Gen 4 x4

What reviewers say

Owners treat the 990 EVO Plus as a reliable, efficient drive that delivers near-advertised sequential speeds and runs cool in normal use. Enthusiasts note it trails the 990 Pro under sustained heavy writes and lacks a DRAM cache.

What people mention
  • SpeedPraisedOwners see sequential reads and writes close to the rated figures in normal desktop use.
  • ThermalsMixedIt runs cool day to day, but long sustained writes can slow without airflow or a heatsink.
  • Sustained writesCriticisedEnthusiasts say it falls behind the 990 Pro under heavy, continuous write loads.
  • SoftwarePraisedSamsung Magician is called useful for health checks and firmware updates.
  • ValuePraisedBuyers see the 4TB capacity on TLC NAND as the main reason to pick it.

About the Samsung 990 EVO Plus 4TB M.2 NVMe SSD

The Samsung 990 EVO Plus is a 4TB internal M.2 NVMe solid-state drive. It uses the M.2 2280 form factor and fits compatible desktop PCs and laptops with an M.2 2280 slot.

It connects over PCIe 4.0 x4 or PCIe 5.0 x2 and supports NVMe 2.0. Sequential read speeds reach up to 7,250 MB/s and sequential write speeds reach up to 6,300 MB/s. Actual performance depends on system configuration and compatibility.

The drive is built with Samsung V-NAND TLC technology and an in-house controller, which combine performance with power efficiency. It works with Samsung Magician software for drive management, monitoring and optimization.

Questions and answers

Is the 990 EVO Plus fast enough for gaming?
Yes. Game load times are dominated by random reads, and the drive handles them well. You will not notice a gap to premium Gen 4 drives in most games.
How does it compare with the Samsung 990 Pro?
The 990 Pro is faster in random and sustained heavy writes and has a DRAM cache. The 990 EVO Plus is the capacity and efficiency pick, especially at 4TB.
Does it work in a PCIe 5.0 slot?
Yes, it runs at PCIe 5.0 x2 there, which gives about the same bandwidth as PCIe 4.0 x4. You get no extra speed from a Gen 5 slot.
Do I need a heatsink?
For normal use, no. For long video renders or large sustained transfers, a motherboard heatsink or aftermarket one keeps writes from slowing.
What is in the box?
The drive itself. Mounting screws and heatsinks are not included, so check your motherboard or laptop for those.
Will it fit my laptop?
Only if the laptop has an M.2 2280 slot that accepts a single-sided drive. Check the slot length and clearance before buying.
