The Samsung 990 SSD is a speedy and reliable drive, but it's difficult to recommend when the Pro model is right there for the taking
The Samsung 990 SSD offers reliable performance and speeds comparable to its Pro model, but its current pricing makes it difficult to recommend over the 990 Pro, especially when alternatives like the WD_Black SN7100 are available. Despite being a DRAM-less PCIe 4.0 drive, it performs well in gaming load times and general use, though its warranty is shorter than the Pro version.
