Samsung 980 500 GB Gaming Internal SSD | V-NAND PCI Express 3.0 M.2
Description
Maximise your PC's potential with a top-performing solid-state drive: the Samsung 980 NVMe M.2 SSD with a generous capacity of 500 GB. One of the latest and best offerings from Samsung, the technology giant that has been the top brand for flash memory since 2003, it provides a substantial boost for gaming, graphics-heavy work, or everyday PC usage. The Samsung 980's powerful performance, high-speed data processing and proven reliability make it an unbeatable choice for those wanting to improve their machine's speed and efficiency.
- Upgrade to NVMe speed: with its NVMe interface and PCIe 3.0 technology, the Samsung 980 utilises nearly all the speed advantages of PCIe 3.0. Using HMB technology and high NVMe efficiency, it delivers astonishing sequential read/write speeds of up to 3,500/3,000 MB/s - over six times faster than SATA SSDs.
- Full Power Mode: through Samsung Magician software, you can keep your SSD at peak performance. Activate Full Power Mode and your drive is always ready to handle enormous files, heavyweight games or even typical PC operations, delivering a consistent, high performance level.
- Long lifespan and durability: Samsung's in-house solutions, which include a state-of-the-art controller, V-NAND, and the latest firmware, ensure the 980 has the endurance to keep your data secure for longer. It offers up to a whopping 600 TBW and comes with a five-year warranty.
- Advanced thermal solutions: high-functioning SSDs need advanced thermal control, and the 980 more than delivers. Nickel-coating and a heat spreader label control the thermal levels of the controller and NAND chip respectively, ensuring stable performance.
- Samsung Magician software: this tool allows you to unlock the full power of the 980. With it, you can monitor drive health, optimise performance, protect vital data and receive significant updates, thereby ensuring the best performance possible from your SSD.
In addition to these key features, the 980 comes with Samsung's innovative thermal algorithm. This helps manage the drive's heat, adapting to performance levels to minimise fluctuations and maintain the 980's temperature at optimal levels over the long term. The Samsung 980 NVMe M.2 500GB SSD, backed by a 5-Year Warranty, is an unparalleled investment in your machine's performance and your productivity.
