Samsung’s SSDs Are Picking Up In Price, Except For The 4TB 990 EVO Plus, Which Remains Discounted At $239.99 On Amazon While Boasting Speeds Of Up To 7,250MB/s

A quick search on Amazon revealed that Samsung’s 4TB 990 PRO PCIe NVMe Gen 4 SSD with a heatsink has its priced bump from $289.99 to $299.99, with the regular version available for a slightly higher $319.99. These incremental jumps mean that it will become harder and harder for consumers to upgrade to a high-capacity solid-state drive from a reputable brand, but there is still a sliver of hope in the form of the 990 EVO Plus. The 4TB version of this model continues to remain discounted at $239.99, making it a rare and opportune moment for you to upgrade to Samsung’s speedy SSD at a lower price.

For those wondering, like the 990 PRO, the 990 EVO Plus supports the same PCIe NVMe Gen 4 standard, with its speeds topping up 7,250MB/s, which is almost touching the limit of this standard. Boasting similar speeds at a lower price should make the 990 EVO Plus a ‘must have’ for any customer looking to increase the storage capacity and bandwidth of their desktop or laptop. These high speeds alone mean that the solid-state drive is compatible with the PS5, but we also want to remind readers to purchase an aftermarket heatsink, or else the SSD will throttle almost immediately.

Samsung also provides its in-house Magician Software that delivers real-time updates for the 990 EVO Plus ranging from firmware updates, encryption and drive health, so you remain well-informed about the solid-state drive’s performance and how you can maintain those speeds overtime. Of course, if you want the very best from Samsung and do not mind paying a premium, the 990 PRO with a pre-installed heatsink can also become a part of your purchase.
