Samsung 990 EVO PLUS Review

[@Ladioz]

I love my 970 evo plus. I've had my Windows on it for about 4 years and it's been so reliable! 97% health

[@RodrigoMAOEE]

How do you measure ssd health?

[@Ladioz]

@@RodrigoMAOEE HWinfo64. It tells you everything

[@mentokmindtruck2443]

@@RodrigoMAOEE That would be the S.M.A.R.T. data I assume. If you are running Windows 10 you should be able to see the health status on your drive in Settings > System > Storage and then choose Manage Disks and Volumes ...then click Properties on the disk... I guess it's somewhat the same in Windows 11. There's also free utility software like CrystalDiskInfo that will read and display such information

Your channel always has the best detailed SSD reviews. 👍

[@stennan]

Agreed. It would have been nice to see some figures for standby power consumption though. I've notice that my laptop battery life took a hit with the 990 pro, might be due to the dram cache and perf drawing more idle power.

[@OptimizingNetwork]

Definitely does

[@rocksfire4390]

me : has decent ssd and enough storage also me : watches anyway it's crazy how much faster the newer stuff has gotten in such a short amount of time. the pricing isn't completely insane like other pc market sectors are.

[@OptimizingNetwork]

It's also amazing how back in 2014 I was buying SATA SSDs with 128gb for around $91 and that was a budget drive at the time, and that $91 meant a whole lot more in the grocery store in comparison as well. $91 was not money you would throw around

[@1sonyzz]

faster? - yes, defo. more capacity? no, in 5 years of time ssd's had 0 innovation towards capacity, were stuck on same 8TB at ridiculous pricing of 1000+usd for sabrent one. Another point is motherboard manufacturers removing sata ports which cost pennies to put on, with each new generation but, not really adding much nvme slots so, if you are prosumer instead of hooking up 8 - 20-24tb hard drives like you could with 2020 motherboards, now you can only hookup 4 sata drives and if you go nvme route capacity wise you can only do 4 nvme ssd's of 8tb which will cost more than 160+tb of hard drives with ssd caching... and that's on high end motherboards, what then budged ones have? were losing functions in favor of nvme which 8tb models are 1100usd a pop...

[@Spinelli__]

What's crazy is that they're not faster. Random speeds of the top gen 5 drives are barely faster than gen 3 drives. What's crazy is that Optane drives from 5+ years ago are not only still faster than even gen 5 drives to this day, but completely obliterate gen 5 drives.

[@59Jithu]

Thanks for the best ssd reviews. Please also make a video on best ssds for each price point, comparing their value proposition. Also please do on comparing defects rate of each brand over years of use to determine, Best reliable and durable ssd brand .

[@TechTesters]

Thanks! Prices change so much though that it's hard to say. As for durability, unless you test loads of the same drive for years, or some retailer gives me details on RMA, it's hard to say objectively. Manufacturer "MTBF" claims don't mean anything anyway.

[@felixis81]

Been using Lexar NM790 on my PS5 with no obvious performance issues since loading times is significantly faster than onboard storage, will be interesting to see your tests on PS5 utilizing both DRAM and DRAM-less SSDs. Awesome review on SSDs as always! 👍🏻

Hartelijk dank voor de geweldige Samsung 990 EVO PLUS review. Jij bent de koningin van SSD's.🤓💯🔥

[@user-vr2rq5hl6l]

Great video! Today, in the US, the SAMSUNG 990 EVO PLUS 2TB and the SAMSUNG 990 PRO 2TB are the same price at $149.99USD. While the 990 PRO is on sale, it seems to be the best choice. In the meantime, I’m happy with the 990 EVO for my normal daily work.

[@TechTesters]

Thanks! And at the same price I'd personally get the Pro as well :)

[@cranp4764]

Would you say this or the Pro for a laptop (which has no room for a heatsink)?

[@user-vr2rq5hl6l]

@ I would go with the 990 EVO PLUS for a laptop, mainly for a lower power rating than the 990 PRO. Also, the cost of the 990 EVO PLUS has gone down and the price of the 990 PRO has gone up.

[@Enri0843]

​​@@user-vr2rq5hl6lHello, and what's the difference between them in power. I ordered a Samsung 990 Evo plus 2tb on amazon for 150$ along with tax, and would like to know if the difference in their power is that big with the pro version?

[@wilsongv95]

[@Fly-Co2]

I love how the call it HMB cache just like the most expensive type of volatile memory even though its just the host memory buffer

[@FafthriechRalofson]

I really appreciate these sad deep dives since even though I was fairly knowledgeable I learned it all before SSDs jumped to the m.2 form factor so I was surprised how complicated choosing a drive has become

[@igavinwood]

The one thing I noticed from modding and playing games is the need for memory storage. Currently I'm looking for a 4TB SSD as I will quite easily fill up a 2TB just modding a single game. I'd love to see how these units compare when it comes to this kind of use where the storage may be on the second M.2 connector or even running through a cable connection. I've seen very few test this and those that did had varying results. Aside from that little wish though, another nice, concise, informative vid. Good choice of testing and tables with historical info for context.

[@ComradeChyrk]

Just ordered the 4tb one to replace one of my 2tb 970 evo plus ssds. The 970s are amazing, but I needed more storage and there was a good black Friday deal on the 4tb 990s

[@gergo.r]

How is it doing with thermals? Is it in a laptop or desktop?

[@benderbg]

4:51 In the consistency benchmark I don't understand how you are getting double the result from Kingston Renegade compared to KC3000 when they are basically the same drive.

[@EugWanker]

Thanks for the great review. Regarding HMB testing, would you consider testing in a USB 4 enclosure? I know that USB 4 would be a bottleneck, but nonetheless it would be interesting. For example, it would be helpful to see the random read/write speeds as well as speed consistency in a USB 4 enclosure. I suspect it would do poorer than the 990 Pro in some tests, but the 990 EVO Plus has the advantage of much lower heat generation, which is advantageous for a small USB enclosure.

[@TechTesters]

USB 4 enclosure testing is already on the way! Will take ages to test dozens of drives, so I might do a video with a smaller number of drives tested first.

[@EugWanker]

@@TechTesters That's great! I'm really looking forward to your results.

[@dangerwr]

Pretty impressive for a DRAM-less. Too bad about that price, though. Thank you for everything that you do!

[@CharlesDDavis]

[@juancuelloespinosa5495]

is it me, or did you skip the random write test? this is the second drive I've had where the random writes and real-world write speed slow to a crawl after a few MB's. Am I doing something wrong? I ran the magician benchmark and random writes came in less than half of the advertised

[@TechTesters]

The definition of "random write test" is pretty broad, there are a lot of settings that can affect the outcome (queue depth, block size, total size, etc). Most benchmarks you see here are traces, which are mostly random anyway, not sequential. If your performance tanks after a few MB, it sounds like there is an actual problem.

[@juancuelloespinosa5495]

@@TechTesters yeah I've noticed some benchmarking software, like diskmark, measures it as MB/s, whereas samsung magician does it in IOPS I'm thinking the same thing. Some forums have claimed fixing it with a fresh windows 11 install. this is an all-new PC though so windows should be clean

[@SM-mk9kl]

love your informative videos. Please try to test the msi spatium m482 2tb. thanks

[@J_Gilliam]

As of late December 2024, the 2TB model is $138 on Amazon. The 990 Pro 2TB is currently $170. Seeing Nada's results, I think I have to go 990 Evo Plus and save $32 and lose the DRAM... My build is solely for gaming. Thoughts?

[@laputa543]

Yes

[@DSDSDS1235]

Will you add validation for hw encryption capabilities for ssds? Supposedly samsungs are the only drives that can support hw encryption with bitlocker, which is a significant difference in real world usage. There are other encryption options like veracrypt and luks too. Would be great to see validation per model that they work or don’t work with them.

[@Ukyo82]

I may consider this in future some 4tb gonna be nice, games getting bigger and bigger

[@heymaumaumau]

For those in the US at least, Amazon is currently having a promotion on the 990 PRO 2TB for the same price as the 990 EVO+.

[@TechTesters]

Absolutely get the 990 Pro if it's the same price.

[@georgiospappas]

this consistency test confuses me. what if im gaming for 10 hours? isnt this considered consistency? because the 990 evo plus seems to beat the 990 pro in gaming. someone help with an answer here please?!?

[@TechTesters]

Consistency only matters if you really stress the drive for hours. If you're gaming, your SSD will load a bit of data, do very little for a long time, load a bit more data, and so on. A 990 EVO Plus can outperform a 990 PRO in such a situation.

[@maxxwellwalt]

Security features? Speed after encryption???????? Does it mean it has hardware encryption that can be used with bitlocker?

[@TechTesters]

I don't use it personally but afaik (and from a quick google) that should be the case.

[@LesmentEvgenii]

It’s interesting why SSD manufacturers don’t produce drives with capacities greater than 4 terabytes. Yes, I know there are 8-terabyte SSDs, but they are priced at astronomical levels.

[@0x1EGEN]

I believe you answered your own question

[@Nightykk]

No real benefits in scale here, I suppose that's the reason. The NAND are the sizes they currently are, and only way to get 8TB is just adding more of them - just increasing the price in a straight line. So, make 4x2TB drives, or make 1x8TB - requires the same amount of physical NAND. Easier for most people to swallow the price of a 2TB.. and then another 2TB...and another.

[@TechTesters]

Samsung especially works at such a scale that they're probably not going to bother with capacities that can't sell in very large numbers. That's probably why they've been relatively slow with 4TB capacities as well. It's probably a matter of time though, 4TB was really expensive before and is getting reasonable now. 8TB will be at some point as well.

[@LesmentEvgenii]

@@TechTesters Thank you for your response. Yes, it would be great to have a larger capacity hard drive. I currently have two Samsung T9 hard drives with 4 terabytes each, but due to the large volume of video I have accumulated, these 4 terabytes are not enough. I would like to have 8 terabytes or more, and at a reasonable price.

[@joenicotera2991]

Techtesters, I enjoy your videos, they are brief enough and the accent is quite pleasant. (Conversely, when I call customer service and get switched over to an Inda accent I hang up the phone.) However... I have noticed that your videos as well as all of the other reviewers do not concern themselves with the power consumption of the drive. Now, I'm sure that somebody might not think power consumption is important, but they don't know what they are talking about. This is a laptop. Because this is a laptop, and like many there are problems that aren't covered well enough. For example, I made the mistake of putting the maximum amount of DRR4 ram in it. When I did this I was assuming that the unused ram would not consume any power at all. This is not the case, in actual practice, ram manufacturers do not have the common sense to turn off things when they are not being used. Now, let us discuss this from an engineering standpoint, for a moment. We have a plastic box with a battery in it, in this case the battery is 95wh. That means that no matter how we go about doing it, without the fan running 95whs of power will be trapped inside that case. My ssd is not hooked up to the cooling fans heat spreader. So, we have a known amount of power and the only way to cook the heat off involves time. The less power the SSD uses, the longer the battery will last and the more time the plastic box has to get rid of it all. (I suppose we could compare cheap LED light bulbs to the high output models until somebody thinks to corner that obscure high efficiency market...because everybody else was printing high eff in the sales brochures without bothering to test it.) So, because, this obscure market continued on for a few years longer than it should have, you actually have at least three years of laptops that all also are the first models that are windows 11 compatible. I will rephrase, this is a gen 8 Intel processor/chipset in a gen 8 dell laptop. If I had purchased a gen 9 Dell laptop it would have a gen 8 intel processor/chipset. If I purchased a budget/department store model of any gen 10 laptop, it would likely have a gen 8 processor. Now, we get to Microsoft announcing that Windows 10 will be discontinued next year and only gen 8 or better computers will accept Win11. See where we are? So, because it isn't possible that anybody ever tested a gen4 Nvme drive in any of those products....it is a little odd that the warranties all run out at the same time as windows. So, one manufacturer dumped Dell, SK HYNIX, and is advertising their "4.3w" power consumption. That goshed darned engineering thing shows up again and how many watts d we design a six year old printed circuit board to handle? So, it would be quite nice if somebody actually tested the peak wattage, because the las of averages only work if you have a warranty department calculating the result. The rest of us notice the smoke detector giving us the result. Sorry for the long read, I know most KZbinrs hate reading.

[@TechTesters]

Thanks for the compliments and the feedback. In short, I agree a proper power consumption evaluation would be really helpful and it's something I hope I can have included very soon. Not in the next video or two that are already shot, but it's definitely on the agenda. Suggestions are always appreciated!

[@TechTesters]

[@raulalejandroordonez3275]

Would it be a good option for a laptop given the thermals? Thanks!!! 😊

[@TechTesters]

Most SSDs can/will thermal throttle in laptops when stressed, I'm still working on a power measurement so I can't say anything for sure yet, but based on the specs and Samsung's process I think this one will hold up relatively well in laptops. So personally I wouldn't worry about buying one for that purpose.

What sort of magic did Crucial employ to make their T500 so fast? Many new drives and updated versions of drives have been released since the T500 was released over 13 months ago yet the T500 remains the fastest, and sometimes by quite a margin, over the vast majority of tests.

[@TechTesters]

Not sure, just a shame they're not always as widely available (and as well priced) as Crucial has historically been with their P5 Plus models.

Why no adata SSD?

[@LivelysReport]

When you say it can run at 2x4.. am I to understand that while it has the ability to connect all 4 lanes, that it can also run at just 2 pcie lanes? Would that allow to have two nvme drives both running at 2 pcie lanes each and then be able to run them in raid 0 or 1? I mean if they made it so you can run it at 2 pcie lanes to give you the ability to also put in a add on card which may use 1 pcie lane and not cut down on your graphics card running at 16.. since all these cpu manufacturers refuse to give us more then 20 pcie lanes, which I find absolutely pathetic.. but it is what it is, we have to be happy with what they give us, or stop buying their product, even my IVY BRIDGE cpu has 40 pcie lanes.. so why have we cut that back to 20 lanes? Anyway, I would like to know what I am asking above..

[@TechTesters]

It gets a little bit complicated because it'll depend on the board, any add-in cards and so on. But these drives can run PCIe Gen5 x2 (with performance essentially identical to Gen4x4), so with the right setup you could run 2 of these at full speed while only using 4 PCIe Gen 5 lanes. I just haven't looked at actual solutions to have that all make sense somehow :)

I just picked up the Lexar MN 790 and it is a powerhouse. I'd suggest considering this one first due to price and capability.

[@gruiadevil]

The problem here is price. Being better in light workloads doesn't mean much. So. Instead of opening a picture or opening up Chrome+Facebook in 0.25s it opens it up in 0.10s ... impressive, on paper. I can't tell the difference though. If you're buying DRamless, you do it to save a buck, and because you don't do heavy sustained workloads. If it's priced higher than a WDSN850x or 980Pro 1Tb (which is the case right now) it's an automatic no-buy. It can only be priced slightly higher than an NV2.

[@TechTesters]

It definitely still needs to get cheaper. I don't think near-NV2/3 pricing is needed, it's objectively better and without any risk of component swaps, but the current 50% premium makes no sense.

[@gruiadevil]

@TechTesters NV3 is priced ludicrously in my market. 50% over the NV2 Just like this 990 EvoPlus Both of them, while I understand they're better, they can't ask for more than a 10-15% Premium.

my T500 is kickin ass, but the firmware is simply inexistent! feels like a missed opportunity

[@raptorhacker599]

nice unit

[@benyomovod6904]

Better pay a bit more for a drive with DDR RAM buffer,

[@mindurbusiness-b3u]

looking for a new boot drive, would this be a good choice, if not what should i look at? i already have a 2tb t500 for games and 2tb wd blue for random crap.. my 1tb gen3 crucial boot drive is a bit long in the tooth now :-/ looking fabulous as always! thanks

[@TechTesters]

For a gaming rig? It's a perfectly valid boot drive. But with current prices I'd probably pick up a 990 Pro or another T500.

Hi Nada, I like the color of your lipstick. It looks so good on you. I just received my new Z890 MB, and it included a Samsung 2 TB 990 PRO M.2 SSD. Not too shabby for a free gift. Thank you, Newegg.
