Packed with speed

Satisfy your need for speed with PCIe 3.0, using HMB technology and NVMe interface for high efficiency. The 980 delivers value, without sacrificing sequential read/write speeds up to 2,900/1,300 MB/s*, over 6.2x the speed of SATA SSDs**.

* Performance may vary depending on the SSDs firmware version, system and hardware configuration. Performance measurements are based on IOmeter 1.1.0. The write performances were measured with Intelligent TurboWrite technology activated. The sequential write performances after Intelligent TurboWrite region are: up to 250 MB/s(250GB), 500 MB/s(500GB) and 900 MB/s(1TB). Test system configuration: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-6700K CPU @ 4.00GHz,DDR4 2133MHz 8GBx2 OS-Windows 10 Pro 64bit Asrock Z-170 Extreme7+

** Results are based on a comparison with Samsung SATA SSDs.HMB (Host Memory Buffer) technology enables the SSD to use the DRAM of the host system for read/write caching and buffering.


Keep moving with Full Power Mode

Keep your SSD running at its peak with Full Power Mode, which drives continuous and consistent high performance. Enable through Samsung Magician software to keep your SSD in active mode with no latency, so you can instantly jump back into large intensive work files or graphics-heavy games.
