While we are now tracking the first price drops on its new mid-tier Gen5 solutions, Amazon has the 4TB Samsung 990 PRO PCIe Gen4 M.2 2280 Internal Solid-State Drive down at $315.12 shipped. This model was introduced to bring a large-capacity solution to the speedy 990 PRO lineup back in September at $420. While now marked down to $320 directly from Samsung, it has now hit an Amazon all-time low at up to $105 off. While it’s certainly not the most affordable solution out there, it is a particularly fast, heatsink-equipped option that will surely take your battlestation to new heights at well under the new Gen5 models – the faster Gen5 Crucial T700 sells at $490, for comparison. Head below for more details.
The 4TB Samsung 990 PRO delivers notable speeds at up to 7,450MB/s within a standard M.2 2280 form-factor. Compatible with both PC and PS5 setups, it also features an integrated heatsink to maximize performance and optimize your experience during heavy gaming sessions or when dealing with system-intensive applications.
As we mentioned above, if you don’t need to get into the large-capacity heatsink options for your setup, the brand new PCIe 5.0 990 EVO SSDs from Samsung are now seeing the first deals with models starting from $100 shipped and with up to $50 in savings to be had over at Amazon.
