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

The 990 EVO Plus is Samsung's mainstream PCIe 4.0/5.0 NVMe drive, here in a 4TB single-sided M.2 2280 form. It reads up to 7,250 MB/s and writes up to 6,300 MB/s, which puts it near the top of PCIe 4.0 drives and well ahead of older budget NVMe models. It uses a DRAM-less design with host memory buffer, so it leans on your system RAM for caching instead of a dedicated chip. It suits gamers and general users who want fast load times and a large single drive, but heavy sustained writers should look at Samsung's Pro line with DRAM and higher endurance.

Pros
  • Very high sequential speeds for a mainstream drive
  • 4TB capacity on one single-sided stick
  • Works in PCIe 4.0 and 5.0 slots
  • Hardware encryption built in
  • Low sleep power draw
Cons
  • DRAM-less design slows sustained random writes versus Pro drives
  • Endurance rating is lower than Samsung's Pro models
  • Runs warm under long writes, so a heatsink helps
  • No heatsink included

What people mention
  • SpeedPraisedOwners say everyday loads and large file copies feel very fast.
  • DRAM-less designCriticisedReviewers note the lack of a dedicated DRAM cache and slower sustained random writes.
  • Sustained writesMixedBurst speeds are high, but speed falls once the write cache is exhausted.
  • HeatMixedIt runs warm during long transfers, and some users add a heatsink.
  • CapacityPraisedThe 4TB single-sided layout is valued for big libraries and thin laptops.
  • SoftwarePraisedSamsung Magician is described as easy for cloning, firmware and health checks.

Questions and answers

Is the 990 EVO Plus fast enough for gaming?
Yes. Its sequential reads and real-world load times are close to the best PCIe 4.0 drives, so game and level loads are quick.
How does it compare with the 990 Pro?
The Pro has a DRAM cache, higher endurance and steadier sustained writes. The EVO Plus is close in everyday use and costs less per terabyte.
Does it need a heatsink?
For normal desktop and laptop use, no. For long video exports or big game installs, a motherboard heatsink keeps speeds steadier.
Will it fit my laptop or PS5?
It is a single-sided M.2 2280 drive, so it fits most laptops and desktops. The PS5 needs a heatsink, which this drive does not include.
Does it work in a PCIe 5.0 slot?
Yes. It runs at PCIe 4.0 speeds but is compatible with PCIe 5.0 M.2 slots.
What is in the box?
The drive itself and documentation. No heatsink, screw or cable is included.
