Samsung 990 EVO Plus Spec and Price in Germany

NVME2TBM.2 22807250 MB/s read

Released September 25, 2024 ·

Samsung dropped the DRAM cache on the 990 EVO Plus, yet sequential read still reaches 7,250 MB/s on PCIe 4.0 — within a few hundred MB/s of the flagship 990 Pro. Random IOPS settle lower at 1,000,000/1,350,000, reflecting its position as the everyday-use, mainstream successor rather than a workstation part. At $184.99, well under the 990 Pro's launch price, it fits builders who want near-flagship sequential throughput without paying for the DRAM-backed performance ceiling.

Tied 26th of 106 models in the SSD catalog on Sequential read — 3 models share this figure. Tied 32nd of 106 models in the SSD catalog on Sequential write — 3 models share this figure.

How to choose an SSDFour questions decide almost every SSD purchase — what fits, how big, how fast, and how much it should cost.NVMe or SATAWhich interface your machine takes, how to tell without opening it, and what the speed difference actually buys you.How much SSD capacity you actually needHow to size a drive from what you already use, why leaving headroom matters, and when one bigger drive beats two small ones.M.2 sizes and SSD form factorsWhat 2280, 2242, and 2.5-inch mean, which one your machine takes, and how to check the keying before you buy.What SSD speed numbers actually tell youSequential versus random performance, why the number on the box describes the rarer case, and how to read it without being misled.PCIe generations for SSDsWhat Gen 3, Gen 4, and Gen 5 change, why a newer drive always works in an older slot, and when the extra speed is worth paying for.TLC, QLC, and DRAM-less SSDsWhat the NAND type and the controller's cache change about how a drive behaves, and when either is worth caring about.SSD endurance and warrantiesWhat TBW and DWPD actually promise, how much a normal machine writes, and when endurance is worth paying extra for.How to install an SSDFitting an M.2 or 2.5-inch drive, choosing between cloning and a clean install, and what to check on the first boot.When an SSD price is actually goodWhy price per terabyte beats any discount percentage, and why a good price on one capacity says nothing about the others.

What owners and reviewers say

Summarised from 4 source(s), reviewed September 13, 2026. A source is counted only where it names this model exactly. How we track prices

Commonly praised

  • Reviewers describe it as balancing performance, power efficiency and capacity rather than chasing one axis.
  • Random read and write performance is a clear improvement over the standard 990 EVO.
  • It uses Samsung's newer V-NAND and a 5nm controller, and is available up to 4TB with a five-year warranty.
  • Owners find it fast for the price and easy to install, a clean upgrade from an older drive.
  • It works out of the box at the advertised speeds in most builds.
  • Buyers report easy installation and immediate recognition by the system.
  • Performance is described as meeting expectations with no surprises in daily use.
  • A long-term owner reports no problems after a year and a half of use.
  • Reviewers call the price-to-performance ratio top and describe installation as easy with good speed.

Commonly criticised

  • Sequential read performance is described as leaving something to be desired, with real-world results below Samsung's claimed figures.
  • It carries a premium price, and buyers focused purely on speed may prefer the 990 Pro at the same cost.
  • Being DRAM-less with host memory buffer, sustained performance and endurance fall short of DRAM-equipped drives.
  • A reviewer warns it gets extremely hot without a heatsink in summer.
