Consumer electronics brand Samsung has launched its latest SSD 990 EVO. Solid State Drives are Samsung’s latest addition to the lineup. With superior energy efficiency, the SSD 990 EVO offers superior performance designed to enhance everyday computing experiences such as gaming, professional work, and video/photo editing. It offers sequential read speeds of up to 5,000 megabytes per second (MB/s) and write speeds of up to 4,200 megabytes (MB/s).
Improved performance
The 990 EVO offers up to 43 percent improved performance compared to the previous version, the 970 EVO Plus. Users get sequential read speeds of up to 5,000 megabytes per second (MB/s) and write speeds of up to 4,200 megabytes (MB/s). Random read and write speeds also get a boost with 700K input/output operations per second (IOPS) and 800K IOPS, respectively.
By using host memory buffer (HMB) technology to link directly to the host processor’s DRAM, SSDs can achieve optimized performance even in a DRAM-less design. Users upgrading from previous mainstream SSDs will experience significantly faster loading speeds for games and faster access to large files.
Improved energy efficiency and smart thermal solutions
Compared to the 970 EVO Plus, Samsung has improved the energy efficiency of the 990 EVO by up to 70 percent. It allows users to use PCs extensively without constant worry about battery life. It supports Modern Standby 1. The 990 EVO’s heat spreader label effectively controls the thermal conditions of the NAND chip, allowing functions to consistently perform at their highest levels without compromising drive integrity.
The 990 EVO is a versatile SSD built to meet current computing needs and anticipate future needs. Users can experience seamless multitasking with a single SSD that meets daily needs such as gaming, business, and creative workflow. The 990 EVO comes in one terabyte (TB) and two terabyte capacity options.
