About this product
The Samsung 990 EVO PLUS 2TB is an internal SSD designed with a PCIe 5.0 x2 M.2 interface, offering 2TB of storage capacity. It features a reported read speed of 500MB/s and a write speed of 4x, alongside 1GB of cache. Compatible with both laptops and PCs, this drive supports secure encryption and comes in a black color. It uses a 2.5-inch form factor.
Our take
This Samsung 990 EVO PLUS offers a substantial 2TB of storage, which is great for users who need plenty of space. The inclusion of secure encryption is a valuable feature for data protection. However, the PCIe 5.0 x2 interface suggests it won't deliver the same extreme speeds as higher-lane PCIe 5.0 drives. The listed read speed of 500MB/s and a generic '4x' write speed are more characteristic of older SATA-based SSDs or entry-level NVMe drives, which is a bit puzzling for a PCIe 5.0 product. The 2.5-inch form factor is also unexpected for an M.2 drive, which might indicate a typo in the specs or a unique design.
