Samsung 980 250GB M.2 2280 NVMe SSD - PCIe 3.0 x4 2900 MB/s - MZ-V8V250BW (Boxed)

Upgrade to the impressive NVMe speed of the Samsung 980 250GB SSD. Whether you need a boost for gaming or a seamless workflow for heavy graphics, the 980 is a smart choice for outstanding SSD performance. Backed by a PCIe 3.0 interface and NVMe technology, this drive provides a massive jump in speed over traditional SATA SSDs, ensuring your system boots faster and applications respond instantly.

Unlike traditional SSDs, the 980 leverages HMB (Host Memory Buffer) technology and the latest V-NAND to deliver sequential read/write speeds of up to 2,900/1,300 MB/s. It is optimized for efficiency, providing high performance without the cost of dedicated DRAM. For those who demand sustained peak performance, the Samsung Magician software's Full Power Mode keeps your SSD at an active level for consistent high-speed gaming or professional work.

Reliability is built-in with an endurance rating of 150 TBW and advanced thermal management. The 980 uses a nickel coating to help manage the controller's heat level and a heat spreader label to deliver effective thermal control of the NAND chip. With Samsung's Dynamic Thermal Guard, the drive automatically monitors and maintains optimal operating temperatures to minimize performance fluctuations during long sessions.
